Scraps Of Time

StoryBook Journal "Cutie Pie"

Back again, this 4.75" X 7 1/2" Storybook Journal; "Cutie Pie" has 51 pages which include a combination of vintage Four Star Onion Skin papers, vintage lined writing, vintage linen, sketch, and watercolor papers, on which you may journal, sketch, draw, paint, and glue.

I have designed 4 double-sided pocket dividers (which are also full size pocket pages with top openings) created from premium double-sided card-stock papers from PhotoPlay's baby girl collection embellished with lots of pockets, cutouts, vintage seam binding ribbon, charms, 5 removable double sided tags and 3 coin envelope pockets. Each page of this journal is hand inked, stamped and o-wire bound between covers which were created from a 1961 children's story book called "The House At Pooh Corner" by A.A. Milne. Also included is a vintage 1930's bingo card double-sided pocket page and trinket cluster.

This is now listed in my Etsy shop here

Lets take a look...

These journals measure 6" X 9" and are bound with sturdy o-wire binding.
