Journaling

I never want to journal during the creative process. Usually, the story is told much later, on 8&1/2x11 paper attached to the back of my layouts. However, this has been part of my overwhelming project to catch up. I have 4 heaping piles of layouts to journal and put into my albums.

So, when I saw a fabulous sketch from Once Upon A .....Sketch, I hesitated. Their focus is on the journaling. As I pondered how I could complete this sketch with their requirements on the journaling, I considered my word strips from My Mind's Eye's Stella & Rose Gertie collection. The beginning of this page started forming in my mind.
I'm so glad the ideas kept flowing. This page was a delight to complete. I hope that you like it too!

Have a marvelous rest of the Sunday. I am hoping to finish up a few cards to post tomorrow afternoon. Blessings!!
