I found these little journals at the dollar store the other day. Do you ever just wander around that store and love it when things catch your eye and a project comes to mind?
I covered the front part of the journal with MFP's Ultra Smooth Vanilla and stamped the edge to the right of the elastic band with the little vine that comes in the MFP's Blackberries, Sunflowers and Bees stamp set. The sunflower from the same set is stamped directly on the cover and again on a separate piece, colored with Copics, cut out and popped up on top of the first one. The sentiment is a rub-on. The lovely brown ribbon is from MFP's.
