heART pocket

this week's DLP challenge is to add a pocket to your page

and fill it with treasures.

so i decided to turn to what i know best…..

and to what i hold near and dear.

because hands-down, the best place to find inspiration

is usually right there next to your heart!

{supplies for this week's DLP challenge:

moleskine planner, kraft card stock, "doodle deux" paper by prima, 

pitt pens, ink pads, 6B graphite pencil, washi tape}

dreams and wishes

when i saw the new DLP challenge to create an illustrated wish list,

my mind immediately went to this artwork i created 

a few years ago about a dream i have…..

because to me, dreams and wishes kind of go hand-in-hand.

but the funny thing about dreaming and wishing 

is sometimes you have to fulfill a wish…..

before you can move on to the dream.

so until then, there's a sweet little yellow house
somewhere in france that's waiting to be filled with lots of love…
and lots of chocolate.  :))

kindness, hearts, and sunshine

it's week 28 already, and the DLP challenge is to 

add a tiny photo to your page. 

so i decided to pull out one of my favorite pictures…..

and add one of my favorite quotes.

and the result is a page filled with hearts and sunshine….

something this journal girl could never have enough of!

bring on the happy!

doodly-do

when life gets kinda crazy,
sometimes the best solution is to put everything aside,
pull out your journal,
and start to fill your page with a little doodly-do…..

especially your favorite doodly-do.

your creative side will thank you immensely,
and you'll be amazed at how a little watercolor and your favorite pen
always sets things right with the world again!
