Zutter 11 for '11 Blog Hop

Zutter 11 for '11 Blog Hop

I am so excited to be a part of Zutter's 11 for '11 Blog Hop. The blog hop will run January 5th to January 12th at 5pm! Just for stopping by Zutter is giving everyone 11% off everything that isn't all ready on sale at their store, Binditall.com . Just enter CODE: Zutter11 Valid through January 31 only.

January is always a time to look ahead and start the new year with a fresh optimism and outlook. I have followed Ali Edwards "ONE WORD" for the last few years and thought I would use it as a starting point for a journal for 2011. My word for this year is "LIVE" and in 2011 I really want to live my life to the fullest and part of that is knowing exactly what I want in my life now and in the future.

To make this mini album I started with a 6" x 6" Flat Spine Cover-All and covered it with Sticky Back Canvas by Claudine Hellmuth Studio. I then printed out one of my favorite photos of my family on the Sticky Back Canvas and adhered it to a piece of Cosmo Cricket paper just a bit smaller than my cover.



For the title I cut out some letters and glued them to the Sticky Back Canvas. Cosmo Cricket had a journaling strip that was perfect for this album. "Live for the moments you can't put into words". I then glued it onto the front of the album.



For the inside pages I went through my stash and found as many pages as I could of either lined paper or calendar paper and cut them to 6" x 6" and bound them with my Bind-It-All machine using 1" Antique Brass Owires.



On the first page I gave the definition for "LIVE" and how I hope to make that happen in 2011.



Zutter is giving away a prize of a Zutter supply pack of "Owire, covers, Cover-Alls and surprises" on each stop so please head over to the Zutter Zisters blogs below and check out their awesome projects!

    I love the canvas word! We as a family choose an inspiration word for every month out of the year. We then do activities during the month that support that word. Our January word of inspiration is "Organization". Having mini-albums for each month will look adorable on my coffee table.

    I LOVE this idea. I'm doing OLW for the first time this year, but hadn't yet figured out how I was going to incorporate it-- your journal is PERFECT for it. Thanks for the inspiration!

    Perfect timing on this album! I'm making a 2011 album for my son's girlfriend (it's a belated xmas gift) & this is giving me some great ideas. I especially liked using the striped paper to write on the lighter color. Thanks!

    I to am trying to "live" my life to it's fullest each and every day. My husband and I will soon be seperated by many states due a job change. I can't join him until our house sells. Every moment I can spend with him is precious.

    I like the diagonal page of journaling. Things don't always have to be straight across the page. Going through your paper stash is a good exercise-you never know what you'll rediscover to complete a project.
