Summer of Color (colour!) ~ Brown

This is my journal page for brown.

It is a 12x12" piece of scrapbooking paper which I was saving (stroking) and didn't know quite what to do with.  I couldn't bring myself to stick photos on it and cover up the beautiful trees.  But for this page, I cut it up into strips and stuck it into my journal.  I inked the gaps with Aged Mahogany distress ink and wrote the scriptures in between.  I also stamped a few birds onto it.

Me in my MoleskinE

Regular readers will know that I am a bit of a Shimelle junkie ~ if not stalker!

I've added a new person to my stalking list!  Kirsty Wiseman.

I spent Sunday with Kirsty on the photography course and at home I am doing her online course Me in My MoleskinE.











And now Kirsty has a new course called 'Feel'.  And you know me, the addiction kicked in, (see July 12th's post) and I signed up.
