hOLY cRApoLi!!!!

I have joined an art journal circle group recently and I completed my first journal entry this morning!!! I was sooooo nervous about doing this and watched in admiration my friends start on this creative journey with a little awe, and a little envy that they could simply "let go" and create.

I am a planner, an organized, type A, follow the rules kind of gal and this idea of just creating something "because" was pretty foreign to me...

I decided "What the hell"!!! School's out for my kids so why not me? I am in, I committed to doing a journal entry for 11 others. I am ready! I am prepared!! I AM EXCITED!!!!

We are supposed to be keeping all the artwork a secret until it is revealed at the end of this journey but I am in such a rebellious mood today that I am writing about it for all of my readers (not that there are that many) to see!!!

This is what I did for the 2nd and 3rd pages of my journal. It is a representation of the most sacred people in my life. My husband and two sons. All you need is love, to embrace and celebrate the good and be there when you are weathering the bad. I am keeping the very first page a secret until my art journal buddies see it.

Happy Canada Day!

Thanks for looking!!!
