Hey girls!
Just wanted to pop in with a few more details about the journal/scrapbook for Chelle. Leslie told me that she really loved hers, so I am thinking that we should make Chelle's the same way...
* The journal itself will be 8x8 inches large
* Please make the pages no bigger than 8x8 inches and no smaller than 3x3 inches- I love how for Leslie's they all ended up being different random sizes!
* Please leave a 1/4 inch to 1/2 margin open on the left side without any writing or detail work on it. This way none of your lovely work will be cut off when I put it all together.
* Feel free to make as many pages as you want. For Leslie's some people made just one or two pages, while others did as many as five!
* You may use one side of the paper, or both. Both sides will be visable in the journal.
* Feel free to use any kind of paper, fabric, pictures, whatever to create your pages! I think that the beauty of these journals is in fact that they are made up of all kinds of random textures and color.
* You may include anything, as far as writing goes, on your pages. Some ideas: words of wisdom, quotes, poems, verses, photos/pictures, letters to Chelle...
* The deadline for sending in pages is: Tuesday, March 10 (that is about one month away), but the earlier the better!
* Please send me an email (talesofacraftymamaATgmailDOTcom) to sign up and I will send you an email reply with my home address.
I can't wait to see all of your beautiful pages!

P.S. Either Leslie or I will try to post some photos of her finished journal for you to see in the next few days...

Thank you for putting this together for us again, Andi! I know it will be beautiful and something she will treasure forever.
Yaay!! I'm so glad we are doing the journal, I think she is going to treasure this forever!!
I love this idea and am so glad we are doing it again!
I started mine last night while watching tv with the fam and am almost done - so fun :)
Oh Ladies...... this will touch Chelle greatly. I for one (looks like EVERYONE included) love this idea. I feel badly that I was not more involved with Leslie's I did not see pictures, and am excited to see them when they get posted. :)
I tend to be an over thinker. Which makes this a difficult one for me.
I will try to get my thoughts to round out to a whole. lol!
Loves and so excited!

So excited to be doing this again! The journal was one of my favorite parts of Leslie's shower. :)
what a beautiful keepsake!!! i would love to participate with a page, but I am going out of town on Tuesday for the rest of Feb. and all of March {a different city each week} so I won't be able to get it designed and created in time. I love love love that this will be getting to her first though...leaving her even more surprised by all the goodies later on!! Is there a time that we tentatively thinking for the gifts? I just want to make sure that if its while I'm gone then i can go ahead and mail my goodies to someone??
