Good Morning Lovelies!

Happy Friday! I hope that your week has gone well, and I hope that your weekend is everything that you need it to be. How are you feeling today?

I am going OK, though I am a little tired. I’m looking forward to the weekend, taking it easy, and hopefully going on a little day trip!

Today’s post is Episode 5 in my Journal Photography series. I love working on my journals, and I’ve really been enjoying sharing some of my work with you.

Let’s get right into this week’s entry – shall we?

Journal Photography: Episode 5

Today’s journal spread is of my recent trip to the Cleveland MetroParks Zoo.

In this photo you can see the left page, which features a couple of photos that I have shared in recent posts! I really enjoy mixing photos printed using my Instax Mini Printer and my Canon Ivy 2 printer. If you asked me to pick a favourite from the two, I wouldn’t be able to.

I also used a sticker that I picked up on the visit, and a receipt from the gift shop.

I’ve also started to like including receipts in my journal spreads, an idea I picked up from my journaling inspo board on Pinterest.

Do any of you use Pinterest too?

You can also see the postcard that I picked up – it’s got baby Tigers!

In this photo you can see the right page, as well as the little blurb that I attached to the back of the postcard. That was written on my red Royal typewriter!

I love that the Cleveland MetroParks Zoo gives you tickets when you visit – tickets are some of my favourite kind of ephemera. This ticket features a Rhino.

In this last photo, you can see the rest of the right page that was hidden beneath the admission ticket.

I love making my journal spreads more on the interactive side, mostly for when I come back to them months later. They are also more engaging when I let other people flip through them. This is actually another idea that I picked up from Pinterest, and I promise, I am not sponsored by Pinterest.

The rest of the little stickers I used on this spread, such as the flowers and the ribbons, are deco stickers that I usually see used to decorate photocards and things like that. They are also perfect to add a little flair to journal spreads!

All of these photos were taken using my iPhone 12, and were edited using the Photoshop Express App.
