My Memory Logbook

Thanks to Kristin from Log Your Memory, I’ve now got my hands on the downloadable edition of the Memory Logbook. I’ve printed the calendars and the pages for January and February. I’m keeping it nice and slim to fit into my purse easily.
Supplies I used for this project:

• 2 sets of Bind-it-all 7.5x5 inch raw chipboard covers
• 3/4 in silver O-wires
• Martha Stewart Glitter in Verdalite
• Large fabric flower
• Bella alphabet rubons
• Paper flowers yellow and white
• Tim Holtz Distress Ink walnut stain
• Martha Stewart bouquet ink in Meyer Lemon
• Martha Stewart flower glitter stickers
• Lemon mini brad

I’ve linked to similar products as many of the items in my stash are no longer available.
I decorated the cover with some glittery leaves and a large fabric flower and some rubons for the date, simple and pretty. I inked the edges of the cover with walnut stain distress ink.
To create the bookmark I cut off a bit of one of those advertising fridge magnet and stuck them on a stripe of cardstock. I then layered the flower and secured it with a brad. Simple and a pretty way to keep my page.
I bound it with my Bind-it-all (yes you’ll see heaps of Zutter projects this year!
Just doing a little something to make it special is well worth the time I invested, especially when it will be used every day!

One Little Word 2011–Grow

After much thought about my One Little Word I’ve settled on grow.
The prompts in Ali Edwards’ One Little Word class for this month are focusing my thoughts on what this word means to me. By chosing this word I am inviting into my life change, maturity, wisdom, health and joy. I want to grow on the good foundations I’ve built into my life and change for the better this year.
I loved the thesaurus entry and I’m focusing on these aspects: flourish, abound. rise, develop, thrive, mature, sprout, take root, ripen, mellow, increase, gain strength, change.
My little album is 7.5”x5” and created using my new Bind-it-all.
I used:

• Bind-it-all tabbed acrylic cover
• Bind It All Inner Pages 7.5"X5" Sheets 10/Pkg Cream
• chipboard letters
• Prima flowers - I used Camelot Roses - Vanessa
• Martha Stewart Copper Ink - on the letters
• Basic grey porcelain rubons

Most of the items I'm using are from my stash, so I've linked you up to similar items.
Are you documenting your resolutions or word for the year?
