Notes & Inspiration journal…

by Dale Anne Potter

I promised a photo of my journal I have for my Notes & Inspirations.

The inside cover on these notebooks are thin paper, so I used the same cardboard as in the other post – from the SU scrapbooking paper packages, covered the front with the butterfly wallpaper border and the back with scrapbooking paper.  I haven’t put a title on this journal yet, but have been thinking about it since I see it all the time on my sewing table….we’ll see what I come up with and when.  Will photograph it again when its done!
The other journal I have near my work space in my studio……..my Card Sketches journal.  I do a small sketch of whatever card

I receive or see online, plus any of the challenges that are out there on CPSSCS, Amy’s blog, Beate’s blog or Taylor’s blog…..or the sketches on Di Hickman’s blog.
Then, when I need to make a card – if I have no idea of what I want to make, I flip thru this little journal and I make a check mark on the sketch and a little note if I make it for someone…..like the two cards I posted for my brother.  I marked the sketch with the check mark, then his name and the year.  So, next year, he won’t get the same card!  LOL!!!
I had been using a large binder before, and always forgot to pull it out of my book shelf, this journal is 5″ X 7″ and I think its one Carrie found at Winners in Edmonton years ago.
