Here again to post up some photos of the work that I've been doing lately.  Created a Facebook account - first time for me.  It's just so that I can join in some of the journalling groups.  I've joined Journal 52 with Effy and Sarah - great fun, great prompts, I'm enjoying joining in.  The group I've joined is Mike's Mission Inspiration and have completed my first page for that which is a different way of going about creating a page - not sure which way I prefer I'm just enjoying both at the moment - who knows where it'll lead though.

I'm going to start by posting all the pages I've now done for Journal 52:

Week 1 was about choosing a word for the year.  My word is 'heart' and each letter signified a different aspect of the life I'd like to lead in 2016.  Loved the background on this one.

Week 2 asked what I would be saying 'Yes' to in 2016.  I enjoyed the doodling in yes.

Week 3 was to commemorate David Bowie's death by illustrating the lyrics of one of his songs.  Was pleased with the background and the leaves on this one.

Week 4 was full moon and I had the opportunity to use some of the Pebeo paints that I had - thought it created a dramatic moon.

Week 5 was monochrome or psychedelia.  I cut the face out and drew round it but filled in the shape freehand - I don't think she looks too bad!  Her nose isn't quite right but from a distance . . .

Now for Mission Inspiration - I've only managed one page but Mike asks you to create a page using a list of requirements like stencil, 3 colours, book pages, etc.  Here's my page:

I enjoyed working on this.

That's all for now as I'm off to start on some more pages.
