{ My Garden Journal }

I said I was going to share all the pages from My Garden Journal, so here they are. This was so much fun to make.
For the front page I used this wonderful 3x3 Chic Calendar Tag. My crinkled ribbon, Prima flowers and The Paper Studio brad.
I used an envelope template from The Cutting Cafe' Sweet Stuff collection. I printed each envelope on white cardstock and cut it out. After folding and adhering I cut about 1 1/2" off to fit my journal size. I used Bind-it-all to bind the journal together. I lined the flap of each envelope with patterned paper.

Each envelope is a perfect size for my seed packets.


This page I covered with Bo Bunny patterned paper and Lollipop Journaling Tag. I added my hand dyed crinkled ribbon and a button. All tags are stamped with my little alpha stamps from Michaels.




October Afternoon paper and Granny's Doily Journaling Tag, crinkled ribbon, Bo Bunny paper clip. I planted basil, parsley, cilantro, chives, Sunflowers and Cornflower. They all came in little packets. There is plenty of room for journaling.


 Granny's Doilies Journaling Tag, Bo Bunny paper, Prima flower and The Paper Studio brad.


Granny's Doily Journaling Tag, Bo Bunny paper, crinkled ribbon, Making Memories pins.



The Country Fair Journaling Tag, Bo Bunny patterned paper, Prima flower, Making Memories clip.


I added additional Chic Journaling Tags to the back of each envelope and clipped extras to the back page for notes that I can add to each pocket if needed. I haven't decided if I will add photos, but I could. I have been taking them daily to see how the garden growing.

Let me know if you have any questions.

  9. It really is lovely. I just wish I could be a little more creative because when I look at how good your project looks, then I want to do better projects myself.
