Yesterday, I went to a great class at Memory Bound Scrapbook store in Ankeny, Iowa.  Jill Peer taught a class on a Creative Christmas Journal.  Her binding technique has me thinking of other journals to come up with and make from scratch.  When I get some made, I'll post photos.  Go the the Memory Bound website to find a calendar of their classes and check out their blog for great updates and photos of projects and crafty ideas for the holidays!  http://www.memoryboundscrapbookstore.com/  Enjoy.
