Well..........it's been a while

Over a month in fact, since I last blogged, I haven't had room to craft for about a month now. Things are slowly getting back to normal and I've managed to find a small space in my so called craft room to get a few journal pages done. I've not been able to do any since I went on a one day workshop at the Craft Barn in April, taught by the very talented Neil Walker.If you get the chance to go to one of Neil's classes you'll love it. These are the pages I've done so far.They're not all finished yet and some don't even have any journalling on them, that's the part I find most difficult. I'm just waiting for that moment of inspiration to hit me!!!!


I did these two pages at the workshop.
























This is one I'm working on at the moment.












These are more or less finished but need more journalling on them. I'm totally at a loss with the journalling bit.

Gorgeous pages Carol - I love how bunting looks as though it's lifting off the pages! I'm the same with the journalling too - prefer just to do the artwork x

Hi,I am your newest follower. Please accept my warm invitation to visit my blog and hopefully to follow me, too. Connie :) I just found your blog and I love your work. Your journal pages are wonderful and your Whimsical Girl reminds me of a Dairy Queen soft serve ice cream cone. She is a darling.

Carol your pages are Beautiful! I love the soft tones and the subtle ways you add texture and interest. I struggle with the journaling bit as well. Lately I have been turning to Google to find quotes to match the thoughts and ideas I'm trying to portray in my pages :)
