Inspired by a calendar journal project that was featured on the Design Sponge blog, I decided to use the same concept (because it’s simply an amazing idea,) but adapt it by using the 7gypsies library drawer (5SG-12605) to store my daily journal pages. Imagine in five years time, if you were able to look back and see what you did on January 10th every year? This project provides a great way to record memories, whether it’s a big event like a wedding or simply a trip to your favorite park. You will need a journal card for every day of the year so while cutting out the 365 pieces of cardstock may take a little while - it’s certainly worth it! The other step that may take some time is stamping the dates onto all the cardstock pieces. To make it quick, I suggest making some piles for the cards - do all the months and then do the days. This way you can stamp 31 January cards with “JAN” very quickly and so on. Then crank out all the numbers - so do all 12 months with the “01” stamp etc... You may want to alter the cards and embellish them just a little. But this is a big project so maybe gradually doing the cards throughout the year might be best! I add a few very simple elements to mine using some of my favorite stamps and some colorful inks. On some of my cards, I used a little white wash to fade the stamped images very slightly. Then I added just a bit of decorative tape. Journal just a little tidbit every day and make it a tradition to continue to do so every year.
