Hello there!  I hope you have had a good weekend and not been too affected by any snow coming your way.

Today I’m popping in quickly today to share this mini journal that I made just before Christmas.  I love making journals, notepads and albums when I get the chance and this one is special as I used papers and embellishments that I had sent to me in a pocket letter by my friend Nicole a few months back (thanks again Nicole!) I still have enough left for other projects too!  I love the nautical theme and especially these colours together – red, navy and this gorgeous lighter blue. When I make a journal I usually include a couple of envelope pages to store bits and pieces in but I didn’t have time to do that here so I just made a sweet little bag using a Paper Smooches Deco Bag Die that I’ll probably stick inside the front or back cover.

I made the bottlecap embellishment using one of my own caps but again using the papers I had been sent.  I saved the caps Nicole sent as these will become keyrings at some point 🙂

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Take care everyone and I hope you all have a great week ahead – Karen 🙂

I also used: WRMK The Cinch, WRMK Corner Chomper, Chipboard, Paper Smooches Deco Bag Die. Papers are Carta Bella – Ahoy There, and all stickers and embellishments were sent in my Pocket Letter.
