I hope by now you've chosen a journal, but if not, that will be your first goal. And the good thing is, I won't tell if you change your mind ;)! Think about how you like to work or what you want to try with this journal. Some people like to have several journals going at once. Others pick one and fill it before considering another. It all depends on your goals and needs, what makes you tick and so forth.
I am using my Strathmore Mixed Media Artists Visual Journal, to get me using it, but I may also have a watercolor one on the side (sshhh) doing nature sketches. Who knows?? You can do one page spreads, two page, half page, 5 pages, it doesn't matter. Just do and get the inspiration out of your head and on the page!!
For this week, let's use favorite color(s), font(s) and a favorite quote (maybe) or emblem/icon/image to make the journal yours. Be sure to add your contact information in there somewhere, just in case your journal decides to explore without you and maybe offer a reward for its safe return (you can do this on your title page or on a separate page).
So are you out there??? If you are, I'd love to meet you. Please leave a comment and feel free to leave suggestions or links to your blog/gallery. Share your fave tools, adhesives, ideas. And we'll see what Monday has in store for us.
Have a fabulous weekend!!!
