Inspired by a movie!

Yesterday I took my girls to go and see "The Chronicles of Narnia III" and in one of the scenes the character Lucy was in a mansion and came across this amazing book with a lock, it was gilded with gold and ornate embellishments from front to back. All I could think of was how amazing it would be to have a journal so beautiful. I have set out to create one in a smaller scale but this is the start.

  1. After reading your post, I know I MUST go and see Narnia III. I can't wait to see that journal. I make those type of journals often-the more mysterious the better. I think you are off to a great start on yours. I can't wait to see what your do with your zentangle pages and front and back of journal! Exciting.
