My Contribution to Louise's Journal

 Louise asked that we share a little about ourselves (great idea and I am going to add that to my journal too!). There was only one page available to I followed Louise's lead and created a small booklet (cover first image).

I decided that I wanted to create something that actually flowed onto another set of pages. I began by tearing one page so the under page was visible then using two different stencils and a stamp pad created the background. After writing a long list of words, I decided on "grow" and "flow" to further connect the pages. Paper, tape, rubberstamps, stickers, a rub-on and writing complete what I've done. It's hard to stop but Palma, the journal swap organizer at Milliande, suggested that we don't need to finish. Tomorrow I'll mail the journal to Louise. I hope she will be pleased. My journal is on its way. Can't wait to revisit it! This is more fun than I imagined.
