Lovely journal start haven’t seen shrink wrap for ages great that you can use the heat tool will look in seeing where I can get it here in Aussie the paper are ideal for the project. Cheers from Coonabarabran ❤
Very, very cute! I love it. I have t journaled faithfully for the last couple of years. I used to keep a prayer journal and need to do that again, it kept me focused. I also had a journal with all the books I had read. I printed off a copy of the book cover, then a synopsis of the book and I decorated the pages, with stickers and die cuts. I kept track because I had forgotten what books I read and how I liked them. I was just looking this morning on Amazon of a journal that was spiral bound, because having decorating the pages it started falling apart. I’m interested in the pocket pages that we have, I want to do more memory keeping again too. Maybe with CTMH we will incorporate more Memory Keeping…..🩷
I agree, Shelley! I am so excited and hopeful to get more memory keeping supplies and opportunities. I love your idea about the things you record. It does help with focus and documenting accomplishments as well as answered prayers. Mindfulness is definitely a goal of mine this year!😍😍😍
Hello Robin. Thank you for the instructions for making a journal. It is beautiful. One day I'll see if I can make one. Not big on writing my thoughts down every day. But who knows😅. It's been very hot here but strangely enough some days are cold. It's not the rainy season in the western cape now but we've had the odd rainy day.which is very much appreciated. . Hopefully when the rains come in winter our dams will fill up again. I hope you're keeping well and looking forward to spring. Regards Jenny.
Just give it a try, Jenny. no need to keep it for personal thoughts only . What about stamping ideas or writing color combos you want to give a try? Or as a swatch book for all the craft supplies you already own? Or doodle some sketches for a future card? The possibilities are endless 👍🏻 I am a bit more on the perfectionism side 🙈🙈 and always wanted to do the perfect planner. But then I realized, that I bought and bought all these dated expensive planners, that I‘d never use - and the following year I can‘t use anymore, because date and day mismatched 😳🙄 So I started with a blank dotted grid paper and write whatever whenever I want - but mostly try some setups, keep it as a reference and try & error book. I love it ❤ best invested 3 bucks ever 💪🏼
I agree with Sandra. I am keeping my entries very surface level and working more on creating the habit and using fun pens and highlighters to write🤣🤣🤣!
Hello dear Jyl. It is a fun project to spend some time on. My MIL asks me to make her a journal every couple years. She is a very consistent at journaling
Hello Robin, I like to journal and I have a few journals on hand. I thought I’d embellish a few to have on hand, for myself and maybe to give as a gift. My DIL loves to journal. I’m going to a retreat next month so I’m starting to make a project list. I will be reviewing a lot of your playdates, so thank you, in advance.🥰
I love your journal! I am also trying to do things for myself in 2024 and enjoying being creative and doing things that are relaxing vs trying to keep up with so much and being behind. I have been more anxious lately as it feels like I don’t have enough time to do everything. Time to regroup 💖
Regroup indeed. I agree wholeheartedly. I was trying to think of a good word for 2024 that would describe the changes or balance I want to achieve and I'm not sure I've found the right one yet. Realign? Refocus? I hope you will join me in being more intentional for yourself too my friend!😊
Great idea to personalize one of the not so expensive note books and turn it into a planner style book. Somewhere in the depths of my craftroom I have some sheets of shrink paper… just don‘t know if I really want to invest the time in searching or stamp instead and keep the searching part to a point if I have no ideas for stamping 😅
Hi Robin. Wow, that turned out great. You are so right,, as card makers we give to others but why not occasionally make something appealing to us. Thanks so much for the beautiful inspiration. BTW, where do we obtain shrink plastic? ❤ 🇨🇦 😊
Robin I need to know... Where do I get my hands on that shrink stuff OHHHH WOW! My mind was just blown, all the images that filtered through of the things I could do... Please what is it called and where do I find it?
Hi Leslie! I'm so sorry for my tardy response. I would check Amazon and search for shrink plastic sheets. You can get all kinds. I like the white or clear the best. You will have so much fun with it.
Great ideas today in many different ways. Good to take care of ourselves. You do much for all stampers! Thank you!!! 😊
Hi Sheryl! I’m happy you enjoyed the project. Take good care of yourself too!😊
I just love this idea!! I think this would be a very nice personalized Mother's day gift too! Thank you
Great idea! My MIL requests a new journal every couple of years and I love making them for her.
Your Journal decorations are gorgeous. Enjoy your journaling throughout the year 📝
Thank you, Debbie! So far it is making me very happy!😁
I love this journal, Just for You! You do so many tutorials for everyone.
Hi Sharon! I am definitely enjoying using my journal so far. It brings me peace each day.😊
So lovely, Robin! And, great, now I need shrink plastic!
🤣 you don’t NEED it?
Awesome! Love it!💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you, Carol!😁
Hi Robin! I love this journal, and you completely blew my mind using the heat gun to shrink those charms!!! I'm going to get some tomorrow 😂
Happy to explode minds with creativity!😁

Love how you decorated your journal. You have inspired me to decorate some journals.

Good afternoon Robin!
Hello!😍
Beautiful idea Robin which I could use for Bible journaling ❤
Absolutely! I use my stamps and paper in my Bible journal too! 😊
I also kept track of my Reading Goals and books in Goodreads, but I’m visual.
Love your book! Inspiring!🎉
I love that! I have a page in my planner where I am tracking my travels and my books this year. I’m glad you like journaling decor too.😁
You inspire me, thank you.
That is so nice! Thank you!

Decisions…decisions. Perhaps your subconscious will work on remembering where your shrink plastic is while you continue stamping??😉
Hi Robin! This is a great idea!
FYI: Vanilla comes from the Orchid plant. Not a vanilla plant.
Thank you! I should have researched more about these images-they are really interesting.😊
Yay for more memory keeping.
I’m happy you are excited about it too. What kind of memory keeping do you like to do?😍
@@reallyrobinstamps I usually use “project life” page protectors. In 9x12. But I also have 6x8 albums along with travelers notebooks.
Coming in late again but I had to get outside. It’s 55 degrees up here in northern MN.
Hello friend!😍

Thank you, Brenda! My shrink plastic is left over from when SU! used to sell it. I would imagine you can google it pretty easily. 😁
Hi Robin
Hi Polly!😍
Robin I need to know... Where do I get my hands on that shrink stuff OHHHH WOW! My mind was just blown, all the images that filtered through of the things I could do... Please what is it called and where do I find it?

I never heard of shrink plastic. Where could I get some?
Try Amazon? Mine is very old and from SU!.
Shrink plastic…What? Don’t know about this lovely ephemera!
😁😁😁! It’s pretty fun!
