Lori Whitlock's August Blog Hop Give Thanks Journal

Hi friends!  It's time for Lori Whitlock's August Blog Hop and I'm excited to be joining the entire creative team to share some fun projects with you!  My blog is the first stop on the hop, so be sure to hop back over to Lori's site too, because she has some goodies for you ... a sale, a giveaway, and a cute freebie!

I played with one of Lori's darling new mason jar files.  She has several designs that you will LOVE!  I turned the Give Thanks file into a gratitude journal.

To create this cute mini album journal, I cut the file with brown paper, and offset Lori's file to create a white background file to use as pages. Then I cut out six white pages.

I covered the pages with Lori's new Fall collection that she designed for Echo Park called "A Perfect Autumn" .  I love the stickers and chipboard embellishments in this line, not to mention all of the wonderful paper patterns! 

I also used a lined journaling stamp from my stash.  I picked this one up from Stampin' Up years ago.

My family will enjoy documenting what we're thankful for this fall ... a Thanksgiving tradition in our house.  I hope you find one of Lori's cute mason jar files that you can create something wonderful with!  Here are just a few examples .... 

Here are some more great things that Lori has for you today!

 Now on to Kathy's site!
