I'm SOOO not good at journaling but I tried... Lots of kits: Red paper and hearts and clipy from Yours Truly Glitter frame, curling ribbon, glitter, and button recolored from Affair to Remember red white and blue paper from Summers Cottage, Tag, gray paper, and "m" from Goosebumps Black dotted paper and scallop from Darling paper collection...I think that's it!

Thank you so much!!

I have a VERY hard time journaling...I'm not much of a writer but I "tried" to explain my feelings! Thank you to your brother as well!!!
