I found these journals in the $1 bins at Michael's yesterday. They immediately reminded me of the Live Your Dream stamp set in the current Stampin'Up! mini catalog. So, of course, I had to get a couple to bring home to play with.
And here they are "dressed" up a bit with some stamped images and some layered cardstock. (Just click on the image for a closer look.)
I even stamped the inside pages.Cute, huh? I love how adding a few handmade touches can really personalize something so simple. Thanks for looking!

cute cute cute! i love how you just added a bit and didn't go overboard and recover the entire thing!
I love that you stamped the inside of the journals! Its such a simple touch, but really makes it your own or much more personal and complete for a gift.
