Remains of the Day Journal

I signed up for the Mary Ann Moss 'Remains of the Day' Journal online class and have finshed my first one. I really enjoyed making this journal - no stamps (I might add a few later though), inks, paint or glue - just scraps of material, paper and a sewing machine. Even if you are a complete beginner with the sewing machine I think you would manage this - Mary Ann is a great teacher and her videos are really easy to follow. So here are my pictures - the cover first and then a selection from the 39 pages that are in my journal - all ready to start journaling on!

There are loads of pockets and places to add pictures including clear inserts and envelopes. The idea of this journal is to use up 'stuff' you already have and I did exactly that.

  6. Jacqui,
    I like your journal a lot, especially the afternoon tea menu used as a pocket. It's fun to see the different papers that you have compared to those we have here in the USA.
