i'm in love...

Seriously, I am so much in love with the "Tell Your Story" art journal class.
I wake up an hour early every morning just to see the newest prompt and to work on my page before work.
It's so fulfilling :)
Here are my two newest pages that I created:


I also made an elastic 'ruffle' band (from a tutorial of Rachel's) to hold my journal closed....love!

I still haven't decided how to decorate the front cover. I'm thinking of just painting "My Story" on the front with acrylic buuuuuut....not sure :)
This has been a really really sad week for me.
Fortunately, my sister and I have a little lovely weekend trip planned for mom, as her Mother's Day gift, that I leave for tomorrow. I need some relaxing and vintage shopping, badly :)
Don't forget to enter the giveaway in the post below!!
I love you.

  5. Love the ruffle cover strap! That is awesome you get up early to work on it! I bet that is a great way to start your day off right! I'm sorry your week has been sad. My week has been really bad too. Lots of crying but hopefully the weekend will be much happier for the both of us! Love you!! <3
