Summer Fun: Quick and Easy 3x4 Journaling Cards with Claudia

Hello everyone! Claudia here. I'm excited to share this super quick and easy project I created to help document our summer vacation. My boys have one week left of school, and I can't wait to have them home.

For my project I used Samantha's Cool Summer collection to create 3x4 journaling cards.
I made sure to leave plenty of space for my boys to journal themselves; and there are some that are ready to add a 2x2 photo (Instagram, of course). Samantha's Cool Summer kit had just about everything I needed to put these together. I have plenty of supplies leftover to make more as the summer goes on. I plan to put these in an 8.5x11 album with those fun baseball card size plastic inserts. The great thing is I can keep some in my purse for on the go journaling; especially for the younger boys (as they tend to forget the details sometimes, heehee).

Here is a close up of the cards.
 I apologize I don't have any "in process" photos; I got so wrapped up in creating the journaling cards, that I completely forgot to take pics along the way. As you can see, anything goes! I just cut and pieced them together; keeping to my personal clean and simple style. 
How about you? Do you like journaling? Do you make your own 3x4 journaling cards? I definitely recommend picking up Samantha's Cool Summer collection. The colors are so vibrant and just perfect for summer!

I'd also like to take a moment to thank our military and their families on this Memorial Day weekend. Without their sacrifice, we would not be able to enjoy everything we love about this beautiful country we live in. We remember those lost and are forever grateful.

Until next time.
Lots of happy hugs,

Supplies used:
Corner Punch
Adhesive
Silhouette (for cutting out speech bubbles)
