I know it has been a while since I participated in one of these and as they are fun, and this month is easy, I thought I'd start again.
This month, Michelle is asking for crusader's to make a journal kit so they can be ready to go at a moments notice.
Why this crusade is easy is because I already have one of these together .....AND I already did a post here....and have posted Journal pages here...and here...
So instead of doing the same thing again, and as that may not be considered to be in the spirit of things I thought I would also share this one......
I now have another more recent 'kit'.
Can a pencil and book be called a kit?
Nothing beats the simple basics.
Anyway, this one fits inside my handbag and is always in there. (I have to admit that I am really not a handbag kinda gal, but whenever I do take it at least I know I have this kit with me.)
When I saw this book I couldn't resist it, as it has a different quote on every page all related to the 'explore' theme, there were other themes but I liked this the best, and better still is the fact that the pages are not ruled.
Here is a recent page in this journal......OK, I'll admit that it is the first and only, but it's a start!
I did this when I was a little early for an appointment last Friday and the leaves caught my attention. It was then that I thought it was a good time to start using my new georgeous book. I had some fun doing some rubbings, (I even kept the leaf). I am really trying to take time in noticing more of what is around me, and being in the moment.
As I was limited by time I thought that I would also capture the scene with a few photos. I only had my phone
With all of these together I thought I might create a piece in the studio....now wouldn't it be great if I had a finished piece to show.....that would just be too good! Especially since I have been busy doing a studio overhaul, I'll post "The Reveal" soon.
