Just For Fun

The whit paper bag from Hallmark just called to me.  I loved the fonts that they used on it but I thought it needed some color.  What do you think?

Come On In!

Now this was fun!  It took a long time but it's pretty much the way I wanted it to turn out.  The little doors lead to myself.  They can be opened and closed and they signify that when I'm here journaling I'm me.  It's one place in the world that is totally mine. I put little fasteners for knobs on the door and tied them together with a ribbon.  Inside is a vista which is a graphic from Graphics Fairy.  So are some of the other graphics - the pig, the funny little girl, the big bird and rose, the nest with the checkered eggs is from a MacKenzie-Childs catalog.  Now aren't you just itching to have your own special place?  It's easy, just get an empty notebook or even a notebook, cut out and paste some wonderful images, add your own thoughts and your on your way!!!!   

Sieze The Day

This page which I completed yesterday is upbeat and happy. Seems like a good one to finish out January with the turquoise colored background and birds and music and French flower lady.  I couldn't resist adding a little angel photographer to the mix. 

Heartfelt

Will we ever forget Valentine's Day at school.  The teacher bringing out a beautifully decorated red and white hat box with a slit in the top where you slipped in your Valentines?  Heart shaped cookies with red sprinkles for the party?  I still look forward to Valentine's Day with the same anticipation as that little girl way back when.  Here are a few tags I've created.   I used doilies, graphics from Graphics Fairy, cutouts from catalogs and magazines and stick on hearts.  My favorite is the one with the little guy with the gold hat.    

Cold Day - Cool Colored Page




Some of my pages are done in watercolor, which I don't think
I've shown yet.  This one is on a Tim Holtz Ranger page because I just
love those papers.  The images come from different places, Graphics Fairy and the
little shoes (aren't they adorable?) are from Joanna at Moss Hill Studio.    If you haven't read
her blog you might be interested. 
This was a fun page to do in the pale colors and I love the heart
that she's holding and the motto -
Believe in Magic, Dream in Color, Live in Wonder

Hope I've inspired you to get busy and create something.    Diane

 

Home Page

This is a journal page I finished today.  I love the polar bear stamp, it came on a postcard yesterday and I couldn't wait to use it.  It's a pretty simple page but it was fun.
