AH--the comfort of the big journal!

It had been a long time since I wrote in my big journal and I miss it when I don't do it for so long a time. When I start to put together this type of spread I start with a word that I usually write in CalligraFun letters and then just start building. I also like to put a face of some sort and some stamps, preferably hand carved. It's very relaxing to do these journal pages. I like the blue girl. I painted her after taking Michelle Brown's watercolor faces class.

    Your BIG Journal pages are sooo wonderful, that I just want to climb in. I love your organization that just seems to flow from you, and all of your little points of interest...and I could go on and on! (I take walks, looking for poppies and poppy pods...not any yet, though!)
