Journals for the CdA Womens Center

Journals for the CdA Womens Center

This week we tackled a project that has been on our to-do list for a while now. We assembled 40 journals that we will donate to the local Women's Center. The purpose behind these journals was give the residents of the shelter something of their own. We have both been in situations where we felt helpless and as if nothing in this world was ours. We know these little books may only be a small token for these women to have, but the importance of having something that is yours and only yours goes beyond what words can even explain. It is our hope that these journals will be used as an outlet of expression.

The front cover reads, "In this journal keep your thoughts, your hopes, your dreams, and all your wishes. They are yours and no one can take them from you."

We printed each of the covers, filled them with 20 full pages of lined paper that we also printed, added the cover text, some ribbon, a place for the journals owner to write their name, and used the Cinch to bind them all. 

All of our Cinch binding was donated by our friend at Underground Scrapbook. This project would have been a lot more difficult with our her help.

If you would like any of the templates that we designed for these books please shoot us and email and we will be glad to share them with you. I just am not sure how to upload .pdf links on here.

Tata for now!

Check back next week for something new...
