Life is full of special memories recorded in journals or scrapbooks to revisit when we want to remember every detail. So, why would we want to house these personal mementos in an impersonal, mass-produced, journal or scrapbook? If it's important enough to record, then it's important enough to own a beautiful piece that speaks to you and your sacred experience. These records will probably be shared and kept for a long time. So, it's important to make it especially personal in celebration.

Journal or scrapbook - "Promise" One of A Kind. I designed this album (7" x 10" with 15 heavy, unlined pages)with a formal but, yet vintage appeal. Attached to the front of this album are velvet posies taken from a vintage wedding hat and tied with silk ribbons and pearls. A 3" x 3" window was designed with an image of a bride and groom that can be easily removed to place another happy couple. The inside of the album was made especially to show a sentimental poem. Then, a 2" x 4" gift tag is included that matchs- with the word "Promise". A sprinkling of diamond dust was scattered over the entirety for a bit of magic and luck. I found myself thinking about the lady who wore this wedding hat on her special day.
