Journal Prep Pages with Lots of Stamping!

 Do you keep a journal? Write lists? Copy down quotes, recipes or the funny things your kids say? Then this post could be for you. I am not a fan of writing on a white page, where the only thing are my words. I would much prefer to write on a page with stamped images, stickers & color.

Keeping up with a journal like this can be time consuming but a good short cut is to have your journal handy. I like to add whatever I am working on. to my journal so at least some of the pages are prepped & ready to go. Not every page needs to be a masterpiece but this helps when I am busy & just want to get the words down. 

These pages were created when my last post was done. Can you see the stamps used on both layouts?  To see the tutorial of my tags you can go here. Amazing how versatile stamps can be. Let's break down the pages a bit. 

This page has some stencil work, stamping & washi tape as well as a bit of digital imagery. I am loving using Seth's new alphabet stamp set. Very cool design for these letters. The Bumble Bee set is from Indigo Blu, No. 9, such detail. There are so many stencils that can be used, Topflight Stamps has a ton!  

Here is the Bumble Bee No. 9 again such a great image. You could pair this with flower stamps or lots of washi tape as I did here. 

This is a stamper's dream so many images make this page come alive. This piece has some of my favorites. That number stamp is a go to of mine & is from another great set filled with wonderful images as well as some great quotes. 

From this "Shine Bright" set not only the numbers but the dot & line background are used. The light bulb images are also used in the page below. This page is just itching for some photos & writing! 

So many of the Shine Bright images were used here, I love the multi color stamped look of this pages. 

 This new set "Be Different" was also used & even though it has a much different feel then the "Shine Bright" images it still works. The words & some of the circle abstracts were used with multiple colors. It was also used for the grasses on the owl page above.

I even added some new to me glitter embossing on the light bulb. It is hard from the photo but it shimmer & shines in the light. Just used one of the Fiesta Trio's directly one the page it turned out great! Thanks so much for joining me today! I hope you get the chance to get inky.
