Happy Journal Swap

I hope you’ll like this idea… if you’ve suggestions for improvement, ideas, add them on here or PM me. :)

I thought it would be great if we had a journal swap which is a bit special. The basics are as usual with decorated journals: You choose a journal and decorate it front and back. You can take a smaller journal, about half the size as a usual one (usual one’s about half the size of A4) or a usual journal or… well, whichever size, whichever shape, too. The decorating: make it pretty, beautiful, something that looks lovely, or cute, or… well, you get the idea. You don’t necessarily have to follow your partner’s profile as I’d like this swap to be very open. – but you can if you wish to. :)

Now you’ll be also putting things into the journal: The theme is Happy so you will be writing or decorating with things, words, quotes, maybe small stories or even a full journal entry here and there that make or made YOU happy. You can write down an experience, you can choose the theme music and decorate half or a full page, you can glue in a photo of Edward and cover him in hearts. It’s up to you! Other suggestions would be glueing in a ticket that took you to some place you love… or a postcard… a photo of your favourite ice cream… of your pet… or… anything really!

You don’t have to fill the journal, but please put in many things – if you choose something tiny to decorate with or short quotes, put in about 30 of them. If you choose bigger things, such as entries, decorated pages you can do less. I leave it up to you – you all know how to make awesome swaps. :)

The idea is to create a journal that will inspire your partner and plant a smile on their face – since we know each other a little via swapping by now it’ll also make her remember you. :) Your partner can use the journal then, maybe continue filling it with happy stuff… and has something to look at whenever she’s feeling not that happy…

I’m giving you more than a month for this one – if more time’s needed, please PM me and I’ll stretch the date.
