Here is our design created from the last sketch posted. I created a Birthday card with a July theme. An eyelet was used to accent the sentiment. I also tied ribbon through the eyelets on the left side of the card to give the card a little more flair.

Often I don’t get a chance to scrapbook events immediately after they happen. Sometimes it can take me up to a year to scrapbook an event. So, to make sure I remember all the details of the event, I document the event in my journal as soon as possible. Sometimes, I include a layout sketch also. So now I can scrapbook the concert I went to in January 2006 without out a problem.

One is able to relay their thoughts and feelings through journaling.When journaling, the basics (Who, What, When, Where, & Why) at the very least should be included. Basic journaling can

Many of the kits also include instructions sheets for

So I decided to make a ribbon ring for my ribbon. I started with the following nine color groups: white, brown, black, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. I also organize my paper and embellishments in these groups
