On April 25th one of my favorite fun scrappy sites is having a blog hop. So thought I would start thinking about what to do in preparation for my post. Recently I joined my first circle journal swap. I started my journal and wanted to share my journal and thoughts and pics of the process and project with all of you.
First, you need to have a group of scrappers willing to commit to joining the swap, for this swap there are 6 artists. Each artist is responsible for completing a lo in each jounal and mailing back out by the 15th of each month.
To start your journal you need to pick a theme for your jounal. Some are doing inspiration and friendship. I have chosen to do a "life lessons learned" journal.
I chose a Maya Road chipboard album as my base, did an introductory lo in the first page and the second page is set for an artists sign in page.

You'll have to check back in 5 months to see the finished product.
Now hop on over to bunny's to see her crafty creation.... Sara (Library Bunny): http://thumpster73.blogspot.com
Happy Hopping!
