Altered Projects Journal

One of my New Year's resolutions was to make a Project Journal to document ideas that INSPIRE me.  Here's what I made. 

At Michael's clearance bin I found this journal for only 30 cents.  It was exactly what I needed. 

For the inside cover I created a pocket to put my coupons.  You could say that I am a coupon queen, that's the reason for the crown by Tim Holtz.  The swirl is also by Tim Holtz and the pretty edges are cut with a Martha Stewart punch which I can't remember the name.

For the tabs I used the File Tabs die by Tim Holtz.

I used the Dymo label maker to create the labels:  Goals, Layouts, Albums, 3-D, Cards and Misc.

Added a lavender ribbon with rhinestones to mark my pages.

Finally, the last pages are covered with beautiful butterflies by K and Company.  Anyone that knows me, knows that I love butterflies.  Looking at butterflies seems to inspire me so that's the reason for adding them to my journal.  The back cover also has a pocket and two tags made with Stampin' Up's Two Tags die.

I think this year is starting off well.  Thanks for visiting.
