EVEN MORE JOURNAL PAGES

Thought I would share two of the journal pages I've made lately (some of them are a bit private for sharing but these aren't). I was preparing this page just as a blank to use later and when I came across the Artchix muse among my collage sheets with her "spoil me" logo I started to think about that as a theme. So this is a useful information page for my nearest and dearest in case they ever want to make me really happy or cheer me up on a bad day, because it contains ideas they might like to use ... OK OK I know I'm dreaming!!

This second page was something I really wanted to SAY, but I'm not sure I like how I've done it! I'm cross with myself that it has turned out all straight lines for starters, but it isn't nearly "arty" enough to fit the theme. Never mind, its done now and there is already another page on the back which I don't want to waste and this one isn't that bad is it? (if it is then TELL me)!!

Well Rosie I really like the straight line look to the page and think it's fab. So is the other one. I think you need to do different styles of pages to try things out x

HI again,

Just wondered what the Fancy Lettering book was called that you mentioned in a earlier post? I could do with learning how to do some nice lettering.

LOVE both these pages - I could be spoiled with the same things you like, lol - great choices. But I really, really LOVE the second page and what you wrote. It's fab - the whole design is wonderful but the words are fantastic and I love the style you've written them in. Great work.

I'm with Cath on this Rosie - both great pages and I likey those things too! But your 'I'm and artist' page is wonderful - true for many of us...I like how you bordered the quote too. x

Amazing pages Rosie. I really like the Spoil Me page. The colour wash is beautiful and the writing is one of the best part of all your pages.

I really like all the difernet boarders and doodles you put into your pages. Lots of detail to look at and admire.

Thanks for sharing =)

I love your journal pages, they are so full of color and great composition. I can relate to your situation, I too am on disability for my Psoratic Arthritis. I went on disability in 2000 for it (I'm now 42). I too have found true joy and happiness in my art,I'd be lost without it. That's why lately I'm concerned because my hands are starting to get really bad. I would be lost if I couldn't create art. I just have to hope and pray that it won't get to that point. At any rate, sorry to babble on, I just could relate completely to what your info. said. Take care!
