Here is a journal that I covered and stamped for a good friend. I like that I can choose red things for her because that is not 'my color' but it is so fun to work with. The red represents her 'spice.' The swirls represent her free spirit, the yellow flower represents the joy of our friendship, the brown velvet ribbon represents the richness of who she is, the dangling beads represent her sense of 'fun', the metallic studs represent how God has and continues to polish her heart, the B represents her identity, and the shadow behind the B represents memories of the past.
She is a person that I respect and love. My favorite thing about her is her deep love for God and her depth as a person. This was a true joy to make a handmade gift for her that she would use.
Thank you Karen. I love the journal and will now look at all of it in a new light. I love the swirls representing my free spirit...I recently decided to include swirls in my home decor : )
ReplyDeleteOne request: I'd like the brown to also represent chocolate! I love it and use it for therapy also : )
I will try to live up to the dangling beads, I am fun challenged. Wow, and the shadow, wow. Yes, you know me. Love you amiga,
