Masterpiece Monday {page 6} part 2

I feel like I'm posting a day late but really I posted early yesterday. Anyways I woke up, took a look at my journal and decided I didn't like it so much. The colors, papers, the whole thing - just wasn't excited to continue working on it. So I started over. This time using a paper bag album. I'm using a small paper pack I got from Target a while back so the album will be consistent throughout. It isn't bound yet & I'm not decided on how I'll bind it because I don't know how many topics there will be or how many pages/pullouts I'll use on each topic. Thanks for looking! And remember that if you want to see more Masterpiece Monday or join in on the fun click on the button. If you want to learn more about, join in or see other journals check out This Is Me.



This is the album cover and first pullout. I will add a photo to the front of the pullout. I inked the pages {brown} and the fabric flower and put a jeweled brad in the center.

This next topic is "In My Honest Opinion", I added the humble part. This was an open topic, you could write your opinion on any one thing or multiple things. I listed random things that have been on my mind lately. I may add more doodling or embellishments to the bottom of the pages.

For the next topic, my hobbies, I used the pullout in the pocket of the IMHO pages. On the front side I listed my hobbies in a collage sort of way using various stickers, stamps & handwriting. On the back of the pullout I journaled briefly about when I make time for myself.

This next topic is "My Favorite Friends at the Moment" I changed mine to favorite friends always. I liked it so much on Scrap Fairy's layout that I had to use it. On the first page I talked about my sister & best friend Chriss. On the second page I will add photos of each of them in the blank spaces. I added a quote about friendship that was preprinted on vellum - adhesive is hidden under the flap created by the paper bag. On the front side of the pullout I wrote about my best childhood friend who died when I was 14 - you can't read the sticker quote below my writing, didn't scan well. On the back I listed other good friends of mine but didn't scan because their last names are included.

The next topic, and last one that I've finished, is "Daily Drive". I don't have a daily commute so I journaled snippets about my driving in general on the first page. On the second page I journaled about my other mode of transportation - walking. I'll add a picture of my car to the front of the pocket pullout and a picture of my *future* pink Caddy to the back.

Thanks for dropping by!

OOOOH I LOVE it! I like these colors better too and it's gotta help your OCD to have all the papers together and coordinating! It sure would help mine! ;-) The inking really gives these pages a certain kind of punch too. Love it! Will probably copy it! Chriss{tine} 30 GREAT things about being 30 :-D
