For my July Project Life® 2022 pages I wanted to work with the digital Note to Self cards from Studio Calico and I love how it turned out. For the journaling I used a digital card from Stories by the Month July by Ali Edwards. I removed the text at the top of the card and added my journaling using my favorite typewriter font Typewriter Basix. Then I printed the card and cut it into stripes and adhered them to my photos.
Sometimes I have so many photos for a month that I don’t have enough space for journal cards, so adding journaling directly onto the photos is a great alternative.
You can watch my process video at the end of this post.




I absolutely loved the cassette card in the Studio Calico card set and made it bigger to fit a 4×6 pocket. Currently I like to write with a fountain pen and black ink, so I added Soundtrack of our Life and our last name to the cassette.






July also marked the announcement for the new DLS Design Inspiration Team so I used the logo from one of their washi tapes and added it to a patterned journal card.
