All Tim Holtz Journal

This was my first altered book. I had just gotten my first Tim Holtz paper collection ever: Wallflower. 
I wanted to make sure that I used as many Tim Holtz products as possible. I adored making this one! Such a beautiful paper collection!  I hope you guys like it. Please, let me know if you have any questions.

My first Clasp Journal

Here, I used some Tim Holts Tissue paper for the cover. I layered 2 medium weight chip board pieces for the foundation. The clasp and corners are from Butterbeescraps, and the trim is from Hobby Lobby, and the Vinyl spine was a gift from my good friend Lori (Just a Girl From the Bay).  

I coffee dyed all the pages and and sewed in 2 signatures. I had a great time and learned a lot from this one!

I went on a craft spree!

Because random bouts of crafting are not only fun but healthy! ? I had a lot of items I had never used before and wanted to see what I could come up with. What do you think?

Tulle Wrapped Letters

My little sister is finally having a baby! Geez, it took long enough. Haha It's a good thing, really. She got to have her alone time a bit longer. Well, unfortunately she is halfway across the country and I can't get out there for the Baby Shower. That makes me sad, but it's okay. I was able to help with a little of the plans and dercoration.

She requested some tulle wrapped letters in the babies initials. This was my first time making something like this and that K was a little challenging but I figured it out! I added a few flower and sprays for embellishments and they were perfect! What do you think?

Atlas Mini File Folder Journal

I used Marion Smith's Timekeeper and Junque Gypsy paper collections. I coffee dyed all the pages and sewed them in. It's a single signature journal. I really like making journals this size because they are easy to bring with you. Travel size and can fit into a purse. There are so many ideas you can use with this collection. I plan on making a mini album soon!

Heart of a Gypsy Mini Journal

I made a small journal Using Marion Smith's Junque Gypsy paper collection. She has an assortment of beautiful cut out ephemera and beautiful pages in general. I think I had more fun cutting everything out than I should have. I love this paper collection so much I had to get more!
