Next time I try one of these I'm going to find a pattern and some instructions somewhere instead of thinking " Yeah that's simple I can do that no trouble ", well that would have been the case if I didn't want to try and do a few extra things to it!
Like put a big orange button and a piece of elastic on it to keep it nicely shut! ( I only had white elastic in my stash, thinking I should buy some black )
Put a specially co-ordinated pocket on the inside cover to keep something with which to write ( or scribble ) anything your heart desires!
Did I mention it's fully lined and has a layer of padding all the way through to make it feel nice and soft!
Walla! My first Journal Cover! I plan on making a big stack of these ( not all the same ) they would make a great gift for someone special, they have an A5 book inside so they are small enough to pop in your handbag.

I can't believe how quickly you craft such beautiful things every day! Love the coordinating cupcakes!
Has the dust settled? Have been thinking of you. Hope your skies are clearing!
Thank you for your prayers for my Dad. He may be coming home today!
Blessings!
Love the book idea... might just have to invest in one of those for my bag !!
Looking good Brenda.....Meg
Books are in my pile of 'things to do'. I have the books and fabric, just need to find the time at this stage. They look so lovely! Love the pink and lime Tea set :)
Enjoy your weekend!
