If you're following this Tim Holtz Blog Hop you should have arrived from the blog of one of my creative heroes, Jan Hobbins. If not there's a full list of all the participating blogs in order at the bottom of this post to help you make sure you don't miss out on any of the fun.
Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Journal
I was beyond thrilled to be asked to create a journal using Tim's Idea-Ology range featuring some of the products you will be familiar with and others that were launched at the show. In particular you'll notice an abundance of the new Collage Paper, used liberally over Tim's Memoranda Paper Stash to add a floral touch throughout.
Here are a couple of close ups of the front cover showing how well the Collage Paper, new Design Tape and new Snarky Small Talk stickers (LOVE them!) coordinate with the Paper Dolls, Memoranda Paper Stash and Ephemera.
The journal was created using a Tattered Worn Binder as the base into which I could add pages and inserts. Some of the pages were adorned whilst others remained 'blank' so that you could see how your own photos and journaling could be added to make it more personal.
Now to reveal what's inside... I've put together a video flip through as there are a number of pages and inserts to see (click on the square at the bottom right corner of the video to see it in full screen);
And now for some added fun...
