Some Pages From My 2012 Word Journal




My word for the year is VISION.  Do our eyes tell our brain what we see or does our brain tell our eyes what to see?  How do I perfect my vision?  Here are a few of my pages using my little Strathmore Drawing Pad.  I'm having fun and learning about myself in the process.  That's what it is all about, my friends!  MY STORY (and I'm sticking to it!)

What I've Done With My Christmas Cards....

I am one of those who sufferes from CCG.  I've had it for years and just can't seem to overcome it.  Maybe some of you have it, too?  Yes, I have CHRISTMAS CARD GUILT!  That's right....I CAN'T throw them away....it just doesn't seem right.  Every year they sit piled on a corner of my desk while I await a brilliant inspiration to come over me.  Last year.....no ideas.  I even went so far as to add the 2010 cards UNDER the 2011 cards we started to receive!  Sad, isn't it.  Makes us look real popular, though!  Christmas Cards halfway up to the ceiling!  LOL!  Our of the blue, I ran across this video on You Tube by Jennibellie and all my problems were solved!!  Here are photos of the album I made using my Christmas Cards and the binding tutorial from Jennibellie.  I also did a You Tube Video telling more about the album, so please visit me there, too.  I had to do a Part 1 and Part 2 since I can't seem to STOP TALKING!!!
