My First Circle Journal






Seven of us over at Scrapaholics have started a Circle Journal. It's my first time doing one. I love the idea! It will take appoximately 8 months to complete. We each create an album with a specific theme. At the front of each album is an instruction page on how we would like our friends to go about adding their pages to our album. Then, a sign in page for everyone in the circle to sign in and then a two page layout based on that theme. Each month we pass the journals on to the next person until everyone has had a chance to complete their portion. In the end, our journals are returned to us and we end up with a beautiful completed album. It's a great way to get to know our friends a little better. My journal is based on Scrapbooking of course lol; why you enjoy scrapbooking, your favourite place to scrap is, your favourite products etc. There are many different themes of course. Right now I'm working on Karen's. Her topic is A Day in the Life of Friends. I'll create a two page layout for her including photos and journalling about a typical day in my life. I can't wait to see what everyone else's themes are! Cool eh? Start one of your own! It's lots of fun!

Only one more day to sign up for my blog candy. I'll be drawing the name of the lucky winner tomorrow evening. Click on this link to sign up. I'll announce the winner tomorrow evening at 9 pm PST. Good luck to everyone who's playing!
