Prayer Journal

One of the first projects we did with our monthly craft group at church was an altered composition book.  Most of the women made theirs into a Prayer Journal.  The one pictured is the one I made, but alas, I ended up giving it away, but I thought it came out so pretty.  We used some Martha Stewart punches for the edges, Spellbinders dies to cut the label (can't remember which now) and my mom found some sweet small gel pens that were perfect in our paper "pen holder".  We added ribbon for a book marker and also to tie the book closed.  I added a pocket on the inside cover to hold prayer sheets, or church bulletins/announcements and stamped a scripture sentiment from one of the Scripture Collections from Our Daily Bread Designs

Altered Comp Books

Here's two composition books that have been kicking around for a while.  I finally added a little medallion to the front cover and made a corner bookmark to match.  Each of my "chicas" will get one of these.  I have to add their initial to the front cover before I give them to them.  I used Elegant edges for the border along the side in the front and also the medallion.  Gotta love that you can get the exact length you need!  I only had scraps to make the bookmarks, so they came out a little smaller than I wanted, but they'll still be useful.
