Garden Journal & matching card

No Gravatar

Last week I’ve been working on this little project.

I just fell in love instantly with the new Paperline from Cosmo Cricket and

I knew that it’s going to be perfect for my garden journal. The rough idea was around for a while but

as usual it took me some time until it was finished.

Sarah Kay Garden Journal

I think that the Sarah Kay Rose’s Garden stamp is a classic and perfect for this project.

Garden Journal Inside

The inside cover page had to be dressed up as well ;)

Inner pages

The inner pages…all cut by hand to fit, each one stamped and with a hand traced border.

Here’s the matching card using Sarah Kay- Spring Blossom” stamp

Sarah Kay-Spring Blossom

and b.t.w….as you can see… I’ve done some stitching and want to thank my good old sewing machine (a Elna Supermatic) that it still does such a great job. My mom bought the machine before my sis was born which was in 1970, then I came along and I’ve basically grown up with this heavy, but great sewing machine. Done my first stitches at the age of 8 and a cpl of years ago, I’ve been begging my mom to let me have it. I couldn’t think about getting any other machine!

Hope the person that’ll get this journal will have as much fun pleasure as I had making it.
