firstly, and most importantly.....thank you SO much for your sweet, sweet encouraging comments regarding my journal entry the other day!! i feel like i never have the adequate words to express to you how much i appreciate your visits and comments....probably because there really are no words that have been invented yet! so, i hope that you don't get tired of me giving you big bloggy bear hugs, because i'm giving you one right now!!
this journal entry was created the same day as the first one that i shared with you. i thought it would be a fun way to jot down some of the highlights of the day....and i'm so "grid oriented and in the box" that this format felt comfortable to me. plus, there's part of me that thinks that if i divide a page up into little blocks, then i don't have to fill the big blank page, just fill one block at a time (crazy, i know, but you gotta go with what works!). and.... i noticed just yesterday that terri-leigh has created some great journal pages using a great watercolored, relaxed style. you can see them here! happy weekend to you!!
journal page created using micron pens, watercolor pencils and a bic ink pen.
I love your journal page & I love you!!!!! And thanks for introducing us to Terri-Leigh. I enjoy her organic style of journaling...coloring beyond the edges. I wish I could do that! My journals are not spectacular like yours. Mine is centered and boring...lol
ReplyDeleteOh, this is wonderful - I love your journal page! So inspiring. It reminds me Geninne's journal photos. Here's a link if you are interested: Geninne's Journal Pages.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! Hugs, Silke
Wow... you really can make anything beautimous! How clever and pretty, Lori! I understand perfectly how you feel about your blogger buddies and their sweetness - I feel the same way! Maybe we should come up with our own vocabulary to better express ourselves- Lauren/Lori-isms if you will...Hugs, Lauren
ReplyDeleteHey Lori... love your journaling format and also Terri-Leighs. Both are very unique and very inspiring. Such talent!
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love the watercolor pencils. I am just now playing around with those and having so much fun.
Have a blessed weekend.

Hiya Lori! Your journal page is just the CUTEST! I love the whimsicalness of it, and all those little boxes just add to that... adorable, ADORABLE!! That little telephone you drew is too precious! Terri Leigh's journaling is lovely also!
ReplyDeleteYour comments are always so sweet when you come to visit...thank you!

Ohhhh, I love this page! The lettering, the decorated numbers, and actually the grid pattern totally appeals to me. What a great way to break it down and make it seem less intimidating! I might try that myself... thanks for the endless inspiration!
ReplyDeleteyour journal page is wonderful!! I love to keep a journal myself. Everyday I write about the things that are important. My paintings are like my journals expressing all the love and growth and a few fears I'm overcoming slowly.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great journal page! I love the block idea and will try it too. It's always fun to visit your blog...I always leave with a smile.
ReplyDeleteI just had to stop by and say thank you for the link to my blog and big bloggy bear hugs to you too! I like your grid page. I think that breaking it down that way is a lot less intimidating. I have done that many times. Keep on creating!
ReplyDeleteI love your page!
ReplyDeleteLori, this is just wonderful, so soft and yet stunning! Also, love your blogging style. I need to work on that!
