A couple of months ago I went to a wonderful workshop with the amazingly talented France Papillion. She totally encouraged me to have a go at journaling - something I had never been comfortable with. So this is MY style of journal page - lots of product and technique but comfortable and still my work. Kind of a hybrid scrapbook page/journal page. A single layout because for me that flows more easily than a double. Not so much about emotions as about memories.
I think I may be a convert to MY form of journal page - it does not conform but so what? If you are thinking about journaling for 2015 then I say go for it - and do what is natural - not what you think a journal page is about. I have France to thank for that lesson.
To find the stamps I have used, here's the Rubber Dance web shop: www.rubberdance.com
Stunning journal page, Happy New Year Katy!

Loving this very much, well done you on creating your own version of Journaling. x
ReplyDeleteIt is such a monumental step to realize that your journal is yours and doesn't need to look like, use the same media as or have the same format as "the experts". Well done! I would LOVE to take a class from France! One of these days...
ReplyDeleteThanks Julie - France is inspirational!
