Books stuffed with gorgeousness!

When Eileen Hull was here this past Sunday she brought the most fantastic vintage suitcases stuffed full of traveler's notebook journals and mini albums made by her and her design team.  It was a visual feast!

One of my favorite things is books and journals "stuffed with stuff".  Back in high school I remember getting a thick notebook with a heavy duty silver coil and hand made paper cover.  I "stuffed" that notebook with pictures of fashion that I loved from my Seventeen magazines and more.  I still have that notebook and consider it a little time capsule from the late 90s (those eyebrows and chunky shoes were rough looking in hindsight!).

I have been a traveler's notebook, smashbook, junk journal fan ever since!  But I have to admit I haven't made much time for this type of crafting lately (I'm still trying to finish up my traveler's notebook from my trip to Denver this past May).  However, I told myself on Sunday while at the Eileen class that I was going to make time daily - even if just 10 minutes - to create in one of my traveler's notebooks or journals.  It may only be Thursday, but I am going 4 days strong so far.  

Since I have all things traveler's notebook and junk journals on the brain currently, I thought I would share some of the awesome inspiration I have been perusing lately.  Scroll down and get ready to look like this:

Aren't they fun looking?  I especially love that the bottom four pictures actually incorporate junk mail into them.  Look at the use of the envelopes!

If you need a little more in person inspiration to get you going, sign up for the Gratitude Journal with Hope class coming up later this month.  In that class you will use a vintage hymnal to create a gratitude journal to use during the Thanksgiving holiday season.  All the details and sign-up are here.  

Or grab a book or journal and some "junk" and sign-up for the Creative Weekend starting Friday, September 29.  You can have a table in our studio to get creative on all weekend for only $15. Details and registration are here.

These are all organized so well. I am a huge fan of keeping your books tidy, and I love that you post this. I want to share how I keep my books as well, but I am not sure if you are interested in that. If you want, I can send you a picture of it. I just really like what you did here, and I want to show you how I organize mine. I hope that we can chat about it.
