Journal with Gift Box, Mini Journal and Box Tutorial—first in the Series

Do you all remember this past Maddalee project? It would be the sweetest and inexpensive gift for Mother's Day!

I have always loved books, from back in the day when I was an art major at Illinois Wesleyan University, concentrating on printmaking. I still do and have been thinking about starting this series of mini journals in a box or a "Book in a Box" series. I'm delighted to have the first design ready to go! See the full tutorial.

Remembering my Childhood Creativity, a Maddalee Retro Journal and Bookmark Project

Happy Monday and hopefully a beautiful spring day for you, my Maddalee friends! If any of you made the Recipe Journal and Gift Tag Set (As seen here.) posted a while ago, you may have an extra Moleskine journal left to play with. If not, they are quite inexpensive if used for gifts, (12.95 plus shipping for a set of two.) The Moleskine info and link are below.

My daughter came across a few journals I made in sixth and seventh grade and had quite forgotten about, 40ish years ago! They are falling apart and faded, but I could still see how my style clearly is my style and hasn't changed all that much over these many past years. I have a very fun publishing project in the works and was inspired by these old and tattered pieces while pulling materials together for the publisher this weekend. I thought it would be fun to share a project with all of you and rather than making it a complicated cutting design, as some recent projects here at Maddalee have been, I would simplify the design as many of us are very busy, but still love our pretty things! Wouldn't this little journal and the bookmarks be the most fun to make for a preteen or teenage girl's sleepover, a ladies' book party or whatever kind of party might be planned? I think these would also be adorably fun for a bride and bridesmaid party or bridal shower as party favors, don't you agree?
