I recently made this gratitude journal for Jabby's birthday. We both have always been journal people...we each have helped the other move endless boxes filled with journals dating as far back as middle school. I don't think we'll ever part with the boxes that continue to move from house to house, apartment to apartment. They are a part of us, our history and in the rereading we've learned some things about ourselves. I made this journal for her because I wanted to be a part of her life for a while, as she schleps it around in her bag or as it sits ready on the shelf for her to pull out and take a moment to center herself and write..pen to paper. Feeling in that moment as if we are together.
The cover picture is a recycled card that she sent me last year for my birthday. It was so perfect I've been holding on to it waiting for the right project. Now it's found it's home. I used mini file folders again as dividers and recycled more of my Soul Beautiful calendar incorporating some of the awesome images. Quotes, tags and other odds and ends make it a confluence of creativity, that I hope she will love.
This is freaking gorgeous-- what a wonderful and memorable gift!!

I inclination not agree on it. I think polite post. Particularly the designation attracted me to read the intact story.
ReplyDeleteGenial fill someone in on and this post helped me alot in my college assignement. Say thank you you as your information.
ReplyDeleteReading these kind of posts reminds me of just how technology truly is ever-present in this day and age, and I am fairly confident when I say that we have passed the point of no return in our relationship with technology.
ReplyDeleteI don't mean this in a bad way, of course! Societal concerns aside... I just hope that as the price of memory decreases, the possibility of uploading our memories onto a digital medium becomes a true reality. It's one of the things I really wish I could encounter in my lifetime.

ReplyDeletemm. attractive text!
ReplyDeleteIn it something is. I agree with you, thanks for an explanation. As always all ingenious is simple.
ReplyDeleteThere are some grammatical mistakes in your post, but otherwise I found it somewhat useful.
ReplyDeleteThere's a lot of stupidity in this world. Should we fight it or just let it take of itself?
I write like mad, every day, and no one visits my blog, that looks similar to yours. What could I be doing wrong?
Would anyone tell a joke about this? I can't stand being depressed like this.
