Weather Forecast Symbol Journaling Cards

When I was brainstorming new journaling card ideas, I realized that weather plays a large part on how people view their vacations. I did some research and then designed weather forecast symbols using CorelDraw.

In the photograph below, you will see the weather forecast symbols in black and white. These are great for general purposes.



Although the black and white version looks good, applying color enhanced the graphics and made them more appealing to a wider audience.

Weekday Journaling Cards

I designed a couple of different weekday journaling card styles. In the first photograph, you will notice that all of the days of the week are listed. This style of journaling card is a good option for those who prefer a one-card fits all style.


The journaling cards below are another style that you might choose if you want a specific day of the week used in your scrapbooking project. These are available in colors as well as black and white.

Round 2008 Calendar Journaling Cards With Scalloped Edges Pastels Style 2

I had an idea about the white space in the scalloped area. I decided it needed some color and I believe it has made the calendar journaling cards more eye-catching. These are identical to style one with the exception that the scalloped area is now filled with color.

Scrapbooking Journaling Cards

I can remember back to the days when I was in my early teenage years and my father taught me how to use the camera to take photographs. I can also recall browsing through popular teen magazines and clipping out photographs of rock stars, television personalities, animals, and other things that caught my interest.

Back then, I would save my favorite photographs and clippings and store them in a school type folder. They may all be in one place and easy to find, but that's about it. If you take it one or two steps further, you can make them more interesting by organizing them into a photo album. Why stop there? Tap into your creative side and show off your talents by arranging your memories into a scrapbooking album.

One of the ways to remember important moments is to use journaling cards. Journaling cards are used to write keywords, sentence or a summary related to whatever photograph you are including in your scrapbook. Below are simple but elegant looking journaling cards.

These are shown in a generic form and can be easily adapted to use for any month and day of the year. In the first picture below, these journaling cards are to be used for the year 2008. However, I do sell journaling cards that you fill-in the year.
