amber dawn's non-paper journal.

The small one is my current paper journal (#25) & the beautiful one beside it is homemade crafted by a dear LJ friend / penpal.


Journal #25 on a glass dish of my buttons collection.
First entry: October 31st, 2009.
I'd not been using it much but have started writing in it again more recently.


page eighteen.


Journal #25
page thirty-nine and page forty.


What journal will I write in when I finish #25?
Likely this beauty. I've had it awhile but hesitate to use it because it's so lovely.
Sometimes the journals are so pretty that I feel reluctant to taint them with my pen scrawl!



I still have hopes that people will enjoy paperexpression, a place where not only paper journals can be shared but other expressive forms of paper art, zines & collages.

from an internet friend / 27 June 2010:
i just want to say (please don't get weirded out by this) but i find you to be a very inspirational person. i know that you suffer with anxiety and agoraphobia but you inspire & motivate me to keep following my passions & i can't thank you enough for that! /cheesyness

But didn't you know? You've all inspired me.
