I have been tasked with finding a way to make Journal report time spent by
staff members (organization wide) on specific projects and cases. Being a
novice to form development, I wonder if it would be worth the effort to try
to develop a custom form for this purpose or if I am setting myself up for a
great deal of frustration...Any tips that folks can provide with regard to
how I can best accomplish this would be most appreciated!

Thank you!

You're probably in for frustration no matter what you do. But the first step is to document requirements -- and don't forget inputs and outputs. There's not enough information in what you've posted so far to determine if a custom form would be a viable solution.
