Do it Yourself Journal - Easy tutorial to make your own

I love a journal and I like to write down everything in lists.  Shopping; meal plans; business plans; work plans; plans for the house; Christmas plans - you name it, I've got a list for it.  And that's where I got this idea from: my love of planning (please note, I'm not saying I'm good at planning 😁 )

Click here to see the video tutorial showing how I made this.

I bought a very plain notebook from Sainsbury's but they are sold all over the place.  I cut a piece of Rich Razzleberry cardstock to cover the front of the note pad.  Obviously this will depend on the size of your note pad.  I then cut a slightly smaller piece of Share What You Love designer series paper.  I wanted the stamped image to be in the centre of the journal so I cut two much smaller pieces of cardstock: one in Rich Razzleberry and the other in Whisper White (slightly smaller).  You can decide how big or how small you want this centrepiece. 

I used the Beautiful You stamp set and stamped the 'Lady with the Umbrella' image in Rich Razzleberry.

Finally, using the Make A Difference stamp set, I formed the words 'My Plans' to stamp on Whisper White and punched out the words using the Pretty Label stamp.  I also created a border around the label with Rich Razzleberry card stock
