Journalling


I'm really getting into journalling at the mo...but I'm not a big fan of computer journalling - mainly because I fiddle around too much trying to size it perfectly to fit the spot on the page, so I actually prefer handwriting....but I'm trying to find different ways to keep the journalling fresh & not looking the same on each page...Yeah, next month I'll focus on the content ROFL - I'm all about the look for now LOL!

So here's a couple of LOs I've done playing with journalling. "First Fish" was a 1 hour challenge over at Embellished..I totally love these challenges - you don't have time to think, you just have to let it evolve quickly. And "Loving Touch" was a sketch challenge from SBO.

I didn't have enough time to measure & draw lines for First Fish, so I pencilled my journalling, then quickly drew my lines with my marker - I really like the way it turned out - yeah its a little messy - but my kids will recognize the handwriting LOL!

With Loving Touch, I lifted the torn notepad page from Julie, but she told me she actually got it from Elsie...so thanks to both of you :o)

Well, I'll keep experimenting & see what else I can do.

CSI will be starting in a sec so I'm off ;o)

Love that you're using your own handwriting and experimneting with 'how to'. Beats computer journaling anyday in my book. Good on you.

Good job using your own writing! I don't particularly like my writing, even though other people say they would kill to have it! I guess it is all up to the individual :-)
