Hello My Crafty Friends,

I'm planning on hosting my second Friendship Journal Swap. If your interested continue to read the below rules.

1. There will be a max of 5 participants. They will be chosen on a first come first serve basis.
2. I will start the swap by making a base journal for each participant.
3. I will then mail all five pieces to the second person on the list. The second person will then add a layer to all five journals and mail all five pieces to the third person on the list and so on.
4. The last person to add their layer will then keep one for them self and mail the other 4 back to me. I will then keep mine and mail the the others to the second person and so on.

When decorating the front of the journals you can use any materials you like and add whatever you like to them. Just keep in mind you must do the same on each of the journals. On the back of the journal there will be a space for you to fill in your name, blog, email address and a spot to briefly describe what you did to the journal.

If you would be interested in participating leave me a message with your email. Please only reply if you can participate to completion to be fair to the others.

Center Pieces for Bridal Shower

Good Morning,

Here's some photos of the center pieces I made with my sister-in-law for my daughters bridal shower.







These were set in martini glasses. The theme is martini and cupcakes. Now we need to figure out what we are going to do for the cupcake decorations.
