Another journal update

Our Everyday Journals - Living Your Word of the Year group on Facebook is going from strength to strength.  A lovely bunch of people who are very supportive of each other.

These are my pages for the last week.

I found a picture of the Canterbury Bells online and printed them out and cut round them and stuck them in my book.  I did consider trying to draw them myself but as you can see I didn't!

I shall probably put some more quotes in next month.

You can see how Mary and Valeire are getting on with their journals on their blogs.
Mary: Found on Brighton
Valerie: Valerie Sjodin

Thanks for joining me today.

Month by month 2017

I thought I would do apost showing one photo from each month in 2017.  It was actually harder to do than I imagined.  There were a couple of months when I hardly took a photo.  Shock horror!

A quick update

I have almost completed a week in my Everyday Journal.  My pages are coming along and I am feeling a sense of satisfaction.   The Journal may not be as fancy as some others you will see on Social Media but this is me.  Maybe as I practise through the year the pages will become more decorative.  Or maybe the total opposite!

I did a title page for my word of the year: Gratitude.  I used Gelatos and a small French Curves.

I finished off my calendar page using Gelatos through a stencil and added some washi tape.

I set out to complete a minimum of three things a day.  I managed that most days.  I did do other things that didn't get listed!

I journaled on this page.

And at the end of each day I wrote down three things I was thankful for.

Just off to take down the Christmas tree and then I need to sit down and plan this coming week.

Thanks for joining me today.
