I can feel the holidays in the air already. How about you? I love this time of year so much with the beauty in the change of the season and all the festivities. From baking to shopping, I make sure to take plenty of vacation time from work so I can savor the season. I enjoy finding special gifts for all my friends and family to show them how much joy they bring to my life. Journals and lettering books are a wonderful gift for anyone with a creative spark. They let you wind down and really meditate on your special bible verses, inspirational quotes or plans for your upcoming days. I recently was introduced to Ellie Claire and all their beautiful journals and lettering books. You have never seen anything like these. The colors and designs are just gorgeous. The covers are bound with ultra thick and high quality paper. Each one has special embellishments like foil and nailhead designs. These journals and books are truly filled with inspirational quotes that inspire creativity for anyone and everyone.
The books are crafted with the ultimate in quality paper. You can feel it as you turn the pages. I just loved all the art styles inside the books. The style and the quotes in the book fit so nicely together. Each one has explicit guides, tutorials and easy to follow instructions for lettering. There is plenty of blank space for your own creations, quotes and thoughts too. I love that there are meaningful quotes throughout each of the books to bolster your mind and soul. What a wonderful way to create beauty and inspiration for your life. You can use these beautiful books to practice your Bible journaling or to note meaningful verses to look back on over time. You can practice your lettering quotes or decorate a page with your own plans and ideas for life. If you are new to journaling or have been doing it for years, either way these books are perfect for you.
When you see the quality of the journals and the paper inside you will be grateful you were blessed to find them. I used a variety of colored markers and pens and you can not see any bleed-through from page to page. You turn the page and each one has new inspiration for joy and thought. What a rewarding way to grow your creative talents in a beautiful way. There are so many inspirational quotes in the journal that really were so meaningful to me. I loved the Florence Nightingale quote in the Illuminate Your Story Journal. She said, "Live your life while you have it. Life is a splendid gift-there is nothing small about it." The Faith & Lettering Journal has one that I love from Proverbs 12:25, "Anxiety weighs down the heart but a kind word cheers it up." So simple but so meaningful and true.
My teenage daughter and I plan to use the journals to stay connected with one another. Between school and work we get so busy, these journals are a nice way for the two of us to stay connected and work on our creative side. You can work on them for fifteen minutes or an hour as you have time. We are so excited to have this to do together and stay in touch with one another. We love all the little features like the pen loop on each journal. The Illuminate Your Story Journal even has a place marker.
You can find each of the journals on online at B+N or Amazon so shopping cannot be easier for all the creative people in your life. Christmas is almost here and I can't think of a more beautiful gift to share. This is such a joyful gift to give to a friend from church or anyone that loves to create.
