Ugh

Okay so just scratch what I said about the Christmas countdown clock, I can't find any that work. If somebody knows of one that will work, please let me know!

Thanks so much! <3

Journal

Hello guys! I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while, I've already kicked myself a few times because of it.

First, I want to say yesterday was a horrible day. I'm sure we all know what happened, and my heart goes out to anyone and everyone that was affected by this terrible act. It makes me sick to know someone would do that.

<3

Next, Today Hanna and I went shopping and had a blast! I know it is very close to Christmas but I still got some stuff for my journal...you could say a lot of SMASH* stuff.

I am so excited. I have finished two more pages.

Here is a look at them both! Enjoy

I love this!

The page on the left is dedicated to all the people hurt yesterday.

And for all the very courageous teachers.

Thank you.

This shows that I used the layering technique for this page. 

And, I am in the process (well it will be up when you read this) of adding a countdown clock to Christmas to my blog.

It hope you will all love it!!

Remember, Jesus is the reason for the season.

Cuteness All Over

Thanks to Hanna and Macy, I have learned how to do this!

It's a book picture frame!

I love it so much!

You can find complete instructions here.

Be sure to let them know you love it too!

Happy Birthday To Me

Today is my birthday and I'm 16.

This is a short post because that's it!

- lots of love, Jordan

Another Page

This post is gonna be longer than other ones.

I have so much to say!

I went to Staples today and found a bunch of neat things from the Martha Stewart collection.

Chalkboard Stickers!

They were made for labeling kitchen jars.

I thought they would be great for temporary journaling.

And they come clean really easy!

They were a tad bit expensive, $6.

But, there were 12 of them in a pack.

Alright, on to the next thing, I started (and finished a new page)

I personally love this page, but I also think it doesn't have enough.

I love it so much!

And, it's interactive!

It has a tag you can turn over.

And a pocket full of things!

I just love it so much!

I also got some tabs, and paperclips.

This is just to make the pages look a little bit cuter(:

I am so happy to keep doing things with my journal!

Journal Pages

Another page down.

Hanna is spending the night at my house and we are having an all night craft session. 

Which is really awesome.

I also have a page done, so here it is!

It's a little hard to see. 

Here's a better one!

Ya know, just cool stuff.

Second Page Complete

I finished another page! (:

I am really excited about it.

Here goes.

So I was trying to think of something to put in the lower left corner (before the words were there), and I couldn't think on anything! So finally, I decided just to write a small, random paragraph. It looks pretty good on the page, and I like it a lot. I just added some cards, and circles, and BOOM, you have an awesome page ;D

I also have a TON of journal ideas I can't wait to share with you! I will probably put them on later tonight (:

Getting Ready For Christmas

If you don't already know, I am super excited for Christmas! 

I have a countdown clock I made myself.

I bet you are thinking, wow she's cool, but this is all it is: 

A little redneck, but hey, who cares?

I also have a wonderful Christmas pillow case made by my Grandmother!!

What a cute thing!!

Anyways, I'm about to write in my journal and then do something in my craft journal!

I'll post about my craft journal later! (:

Presents

I love giving and receiving presents! But sometimes, you have somebody on your list that is a little hard to buy for. That's why there is always another choice, you can make them something! Handmade gifts are always a good choice.

Hanna (another link to her blog) recently made me something that made me feel oh so wonderful!

A little book! 

Here's the cover

& a few of the inside pages

It's so simple and it means so much to somebody!

& I love it too! :D

Ready For Christmas

Hi friends!

Christmas time is soon! I'm so excited. I know what I want! 

Of course everything SMASH* is on my list! 

That's not it though. I'm getting a pair of Toms for my birthday (cute).

I'm really excited for my birthday party and for Christmas.

Merry Christmas!

Do you have any Christmas traditions? 

We go to my grandmas house Christmas Eve and have supper and open presents

On Christmas day we have breakfast at my house.

Hanna comes down after that and we look at each others gifts.

On Christmas night, we go to my other grandmother's house.

I love this time of year! 

-lots of love, Jordan 

SMASH*

This is the best stuff ever. You couldn't possibly beat this. Hanna and I said that we would have all of the SMASH* stuff one day.

It is seriously amazing.

I love it.

So in order to share the love, you can find all the supplies they have here.

Just how neat is this?!

So much amazing stuff you can do with this!

Happy Crafting

-lots of love, Jordan.

Winter Time

It's getting close to winter time. Yay! My birthday is very soon! (:

I decided to add a little snow man to this photo for a cute holiday tone.

It's getting really cold so bundle up, and make time with your family.

Drink lots of coffee, or hot chocolate, and always, make crafts! (;

Happy Crafting!

Keeping Up With Your Stuff

I know what you are thinking. Why would she tell us how to keep up with our stuff?

Well, because, it's actually pretty easy to lose little things when you have a lot of stuff. 

So try to put it in a drawer or box easy to get to. 

Here is my collection. It has accumulated very fast! 

Happy Crafting 

-lots of love, Jordan

Adding What You Like

The best thing about having a journal is finding ways to express yourself. You can put anything you want into it. 

On the next page, I added some things about my family, and what I like to do.

After that, I added a favorite animal page.

I love cows (:

I have this cute page with lots of cows! 

I also have a page about me.

My birthday is coming up soon, so I wrote about it too. 

You can add anything to the journal.

Left : Birthday Page  Right : Random cute page

Circles and cards are really cute.

When you need a little color, you can always add your Washi Tape.

Adding color to a dull page really makes it stand out.

Happy Crafting

Ideas

Have an idea you would like to share? Leave a comment and I will put them all in a post (:

First Page

To start out, this is a welcome page. Simple. Nothing too flashy.

This is mine. 

I have a picture frame with a piece of red paper behind it.

Hearts in different patterns are always a good choice.

They're cute and simple!

Also, different patterns of paper is good too! (:

Oh! And stickers!!! :D

Old textbooks and magazines are a good choice when you want to find cute pictures.

Keep up with all your stuff in a drawer or box!

Happy Crafting

-lots of love, Jordan

Add a little color

Need a quick sprits of color? Washi Tape is the way to go!

No need to use regular tape!

this picture came from SMASH*

You can't go wrong with this stuff! Google Images

It's the best thing since sliced bread (; Google Images

Let's Start

Getting a Journal

You can use anything as a journal. It doesn't matter what size but I would say for it to not be too small. Mine is a medium sized journal. Depending on what you are going to put in it, you could get a bigger one.

I'm not ashamed, mine came from Dollar General. It was a quick grab and I needed one ASAP.

Here it is (:

It's not too small and not too big. It would fit in a purse and not take up too much room. It's cute and it was cheap! SMASH* also makes journals. They are $12. They come with pre-decorated pages, a pocket in the back (I think, haha) and a glue pen. There are a bunch of different ones. I love it!

-lots of love, Jordan

Let's start Journaling

Supplies

First, I must say, Hanna got me into this. So thank you!

Okay, I have to tell you my favorite journaling items are SMASH*. They have the absolute best things ever. I have a very small collection of this stuff.

You can see here.

I have: Tape (2), Envelopes , Sticky notes, and a writing tablet.

You have to check this out! Their stuff is really cheap and you can get it online or in most Wal-Marts (scrapbooking section) or in Target (school/office supplies). 

Wonderful things(:

First Post(:

Hey! Today is Sunday November, 25. This is my first post and I am really excited about my new blog!

Also, my cousin Hanna and I, love journaling. We've spent most of the Thanksgiving break with each other just making things. We have so much fun! (:

I love us <3
