Hello DeNami friends,

Journaling is a very popular hobby and I wanted to show you how you can create a beautiful journal that is inexpensive to make and also makes a great gift. You will also learn how to make a matching card.

I bought the plain journal at Walmart for about $3. I made sure it was a spiral bound to add the decorative binding. You can use a regular book bound version, and just skip this step.

In the video below I show step by step how to create the journal and card.

This journal makes a beautiful gift but also makes a lovely journal for yourself. You can do these same decorative touches on photo albums, scrapbooks, address books, planners and notebooks.

You can use the same stamps for the matching card. It makes your gift even easier to make when you don’t have to come up with a new card design. Plus, it looks very coordinated having the matching duo.

You can even make these to sell at craft fairs, give as teacher gifts, give to your club members, as a shower gift, etc.

Here’s the video to see how it was all made. Be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel to stay up to date as to any new videos.

Enjoy making these lovely gifts.
