Crop Challenge | Journaling with Mandie

Every now and again I do some retro documenting and this was for my "back in the nineties" album. I documented inside of my favorite past time.. And present time too. A wine glass.

In this pocket page spread, I used a mint-colored patterned card from Roman Holiday for journaling (the one that has "yum!" flair): http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/199897-17-things-that-make-me-happy

I journaled inside the circle of the "this story" card.

Journaling inside the leaf embellishment -

What a great idea! Journaled inside the leaf on one of the documenter cards.

Thanks for the cool challenge, Mandie! Not something I would normally do, but will probably include a lot more now! I used two filler cards as journal cards...one by printing directly on the cards and the other by cutting out a square and sewing the journaling onto the card.

Thanks for the inspiration! I made a mixed media layout with journaling written on die-cut circles: http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/199959-happy-moments

I found my soulmate! The journaling card/documenter kit!

I did my journaling for this layout directly onto the product packaging as well as onto two tea bag strings I created with digital stamps in Photoshop(they are tucked behind the packaging in the pocket and can't see for the photo). I will try to take a photo closeup of those when I have better lighting.

I'm not a project lifer but I don't think this was a journaling card

I created a journaling card using a filler card and some vellum on top of it. I like to calm down some busy patterns with this technique.

I placed my journaling on a chipboard pencil. Thanks for helping me think out of the box! : )

I don't think the jc in the middle row was intended for journaling :) http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/200214-cool-documenter-page

I journaled on a chipboard tag and then placed it on a filler journal card.

I used a couple of filler cards and printed some journaling onto photo paper with my picturemate and cut the journaling down to fit. http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/200245-week-7-2017

This was such a cute idea for a challenge - love thinking outside the box, thank you!!! :)
