I've been playing with my art journal this week. Sometimes I like to just play with paints, stamps and inks. Sometimes I like to include inspirational quotes and sometimes I like to journal little sectors from my life right now. It's always fun to look back on. Today I am using the 'things to do [...]
 We've created these leaves for this months kit. I love that my hubby Ade, designed them with a perforated centre so they fold so easily. It makes them come to life a little. I decided to make some cards using mine. I tend to make cards in 3's and always have card to hand, just [...]
I've been playing with my November Kit and have created this scrapbooking page. I really enjoy this time our year. Our family pumpkin carving session is one of my favourite family traditions. This has to go in the family scrapbook. The 'Things to do around the house' list is a perfect addition to a scrapbook [...]
 This is my favourite time of year. I love how the leaves are all changing, I love all these Autumnal colours. It's so warm and cozy. I do love to add a little Autumnal decor to the house this time of year. A couple of years ago I made a felt leaf garland, so [...]
We've had a very busy few days. School break, a friend's wedding, a Halloween party. It's been go go go. So last night when I got my planner ready for this week I was pleased to see apart from work, not too much going on. I need that sometimes. I need a quieter week this [...]
I love this time of year. I love to decorate the house with candles and Halloween decorations. Right now I'm busy making lots of tea light holders for our Halloween party to go inside and out. I want to have lots of candles outside as our friends arrive. I always keep our old glass jars. [...]
My daughter, Hollie & I had so much fun with today's project. We've been potato printing!! Did you do that as a kid too? Takes me right back to pre school days. It's definitely a case of releasing your inner child. All you need is a potato, small sharp knife and something to create the [...]
I like to make notes & lists. I like to be able to jot things down as I think about them. I don't always want a big note pad in my bag though. I'd much prefer something slim line and also pretty. These little dori-journals are perfect to slide in to your hand bag, keep [...]
Scrapbooking for me is my way of telling our stories. I want my kids to be able to look back on our real lives and see how things really were. I want them to be able to see the little things as well as all the big lovely events. I want to document the funny [...]
With this month's kit theme being 'Once upon a Story' I thought it would be a good month to chat about art journals in a bit more depth. Why? Art journaling is something that I dip in and out of and that suits me. I like projects that I can easily pick up and put [...]
