thank you so much for watching, I hope that you enjoyed the video.
the idea of the collaboration is there will be 2 videos a day for the next month, each day a different prompt, so at the end of the month, you will have seen lots of different ways to decorate your journals.
the prompt for today is Secret Garden Pockets, and I share this day with @rubyandpearlxo so be sure to visit her channel too.
If you decide to follow this challenge, add this # so we can all see what you make #journaljigsaw
there is a giveaway at the end of the challenge, and I understand anyone who has liked and commented on every video will be entered.
Here is the Link with all of their links to make it easy for you to everything you need including the different collaborators, and both Rach and Angelas stores. (notice the button which swipes left or right to reveal the LINKS or STORES.)
