I have been reading alot about art journals lately and am so inspired by all the photographs of journals out there which combine art and/or images and words and thoughts. I have read that your not suppose to think so much and just let it come out. Here is my page from yesterday.
I really enjoy the process, cutting, gluing, but when it comes time to put in the words - my wall goes up. I really struggle with that part of it.
I really love those journal pages with all the writing, and different letter types and squiggles.... I am going to keep trying! Maybe it will just come with time??

Me too. I love putting all the pictures, and little trinkets but can never figure out what to write. I too love the journals like Pam garrisons. Maybe we'll get there some day.

I have found your journal can be something as simple as a day to day account of any highlights/lowlights. There are some budding deep and meaningful authors out there that pour their heart and soul and the meaning of life into their journal....mine is just a 'Had coffee with Mandy today' kind of journal and I really enjoy looking back a year later and remembering my simple day to day happenings and enjoying the decorated pages.
i think your page is gorgeous!!! i have not tried journaling...but i have done scrapbooking a while back and the wording is THE worst part for me...i am not good at doing the doodling either...i am always afraid i will ruin the page i have put together...
I haven't tried journaling yet, but it must be cathartic. I really like the cherub you chose. So cute.

It's beautiful with or without words! Nice work. :)
