This journal is all about being simple and just letting it go. So I dislike my handwriting...let it go. The writing is unevenly spaced....let it go. It is not my best page...let it go! It is about having the creative freedom to create some fun pages and try some new techniques.
I am thrilled to say that you guys are emailing me and sharing the journey! Thank you to Lizzie Oakes who shared her Journal with me:
"here are the pages so far in my quote book... this is really fun to do! i even ran out and got some water colors and i'm practicing with them and got some charcoal pencils today so lots of smudging is in my future! thnx for issuing this challenge! i'll be sure to email more as i do them!!! in fact i think i might make one of these once a month now! it's THAT fun!!" -lizzie oakley
Thank you Lizzie for your kind words and for sharing with me! If you wish to share your album/pages with me you can email them to [email protected]. Remember that Inspiration is Contagious and it is the best thing to catch.
