This journal measures 6-3/8" x 8-1/16" and has a debossed chipboard cover for you to decorate or leave as-is and 60 total printed pages (30 coordinated spreads). I think one of the the things I love most is the Rotary Stamp. Remember the old date stamps the librarian used to stamp your checkout card with? This is like that but also has 12 cleaver and useful phrases. Turn the dial to change the phrase and date. Love it! The Designer Washi Tape comes in three designs - 3/8", 1/2" & 5/8" - all for just $4.95. Use it to attach ticket stubs, design ideas, recipes or anything else to a page in your journal. See everything and order here

Edited to add: Stampin' Up! is giving away a trip for 2 to San Diego! There is nothing like a trip with Stampin' Up! and you could join Demonstrators who are working hard this year to earn this 3 night stay at the luxurious US Grant Hotel September 12-15.

And finally,
Yesterday my little guy had his 5th birthday. We celebrated with a party at an indoor bouncy house place. It was a blast and I just have to show you what my husband (he was a big help since we needed 20!) and I made to give the kids as a thank you for coming.

Isaac wanted a dinosaur theme and I saw this fantastic idea on Pinterest. We started with 5" balloons and paper-mached them with none other than the brown paper packing that comes in the Stampin' Up! orders. A large enough opening was left at one end so that after the balloon was popped, I could fill the dinosaur egg with goodies for the kids. Then I added more paper-mache to close it up.

The kids each took an egg home to crack open and reveal their gift.

Here is my little dinosaur :)

Thank you for sticking around to the end of this long post. 
Happy Stamping!
