Heather, from Speckled Egg is well-known for her Inspiration Box Swaps where everyone decorates a large matchbox and fills it with lots of fun goodies. Well, this time around Heather switched things up a bit and instead of altering a matchbox, we altered composition books to create journals for our swap partners. I was paired up with Mary and Patty and after exchanging a list of the things we like, these are the journals they sent me:

Here is the sweet journal Mary created. Mary likes birds just like me. I love the soft colors and all the lace she used.

The second journal was created by Patty. She really got my love of aquas and pinks.

Don't you love the pocket she hid in the cover? So clever!

And this is the back cover. Both of these altered journals are beautiful and I can't wait to start filling them up. Thanks girls!!! And a BIG hug to Heather for organizing another fun swap!
Next time I'll show you the journals I made for Mary and Patty.

Both journals are gorgeous. I am lucky to call Mary a friend (even though we've never actually met) She's a dear person. I love the colors both ladies used. This was a fun swap.
