Heartfelt Creation’s September Blog Hop



Hello! Welcome to Heartfelt Creation’s September blog hop. Today I am sharing a little gift I made for a friend. I decorated a store bought 8x4 journal for her to document her beach house memories in. I used Heartfelt Creation’s Sea Breeze collection for this project. Sadly, this collection is set to retire soon so grab it while you can! This is one of my favorites and I have created so many things with it. 

I decorated the front and back with paper from the Sea Breeze collection. I then stamped an image on each page corner in Old Paper distress ink. I wanted the stamped images to be subtle so that you could write over top of it, if needed.


I also created a matching card to give with the journal.



The hop begins at 8AM EDT on Friday, September 24, 2021 and runs until 11:55PM EDT on Monday, September 27, 2021. At that time a random comment from a mystery blog will be chosen to win a $25 Heartfelt Creations Gift Card. 

Heartfelt Creations will be giving away a second $25 gift card chosen randomly from the comments left on their blog. The winners will be announced on the Heartfelt Creations blog and Facebook page on Wednesday, September 29, 2021. 

The winner has 72 hours to claim the prize by emailing socialmedia@heartfeltcreations.com. Please write “Winner of the September 2021 Alumni Hop” in the subject line.

I love, love, love this cleverly made scene card. I feel like I could climb right into that sailboat! Thanks for hopping with us this month, my friend! xo

Very nice that you informed us of retiring Heartfelt Creations products. I have some stamps/dies from this set but would like to snag some paper if it is still available. You are very creative with both the journal and card. Final product I am sure your friend will adore - I know I do!

Terry Law said...

What a great gift idea! I love how you have lightly stamped an image on each page, it shows how much you care. This is a wonderful set and I am looking forward to using it too.

I am on vacation at the beach in Nagshead, NC and this just spoke to me as we sat on the beach and watched the sandpipers scurry here and there. Lovely.
