If you're looking for a great way to turn your attention to what's really important this holiday season, we're here to help...A gratitude Journal is a wonderful way to invite the entire family to take part in focusing on the good things. And Designer Laura McCollough has provided us with a wonderful example:
This sweet journal holds a collection of wonderful words and memories from Laura's entire family. She started with a mini album that has envelope pages and had each family member create a list of what they're thankful for.
Everyone got their own envelope, and once the lists were complete, they were slipped inside for safe-keeping. Pretty nifty, right?
Laura used our Botanical Christmas papers and embellishments, but added in bits of color to make the project work for any time of year. We love that our products are flexible like that!
Laura also found ways to incorporate her own unique pages to the album to give it more dimension and texture. You're never confined to the way a product is on the shelf! Think outside the box and really make it your own, like Laura's done with this chipboard page...
...and this canvas page, which has been hole punched and stamped with the Webster's Pages/Unity stamps:
She even turned one of our Journaling Cards into a page of its own:
The main envelope pages are pulled together and unified with the addition of a strip of graph paper on the outside of each one: 
And of course, she made sure to keep lots of flowers and feminine touches on her girls' pages which brought the whole thing together beautifully. A wonderful addition to her coffee table!
Now, lest you think we've forgotten what day it is... (That's fancy-talk for...we have prizes to give away!)
You may notice that the last couple of days we've been focusing on tags...and you've got a chance today to win a nifty little tag-inspired prize. Simply leave us a comment and tell us what you are most grateful for in this moment. (Don't worry about being deep...right now I'm thankful for Diet Dr. Pepper...)
We think we've got a pretty grand selection of fabric tickets and we'd love to send some your way so play along!
As for the winner of the adhesive pack from Glue Arts:

I love my glider!!!and I'm excited about this site and I already love the product so on this grey cold day I'm all happy and warm playing ,learning and having fun with your projects so thanks for sharing!1

This is a gorgeous project... I don't think I've been inspired by an envelope book until this one (and I've seen many)! What I am grateful for is God's gifts to me...my husband and my two sons!

I'm so grateful to have a loving family.
Your grateful envelope album is stunning! I'm definitely going to use that idea for this Thanksgiving --- won't look as awesome as yours but I'm inspired. Thanks so much for sharing. I was also thinking that you could use big manilla envelopes and do something similar to keep your childs school and artwork memories in. Decorate the outside for each year and tuck the memories inside.

Love, love, love anything crafty with tags of any kind. At this very moment, I am grateful for a good cup of coffee and that my husband is away hunting for the weekend and I have the house to myself to scrapbook. Doesn't get much better than this. Oh, and did I say I LOVE tags....
