  1. So Perfect

    So Perfect

    This is such a fun collection! There are no really special techniques here except for playing with neural filters and the onboard filters on a couple of the photos. I started with a plain, light background and added the planner book element then just started building these art journal pages...
  2. Home

    Home

    Home is the place where you can be yourself, where your heart can be full of joy and love. It is not bound by walls or a roof, but by the warmth and security you feel as soon as you step inside. Home is the resting point in the storm of life, an oasis of comfort and familiarity. Home is where...

    New beginnings

    I am a bit late with this page, but better late than never.. ---- Today my youngest son graduated from high school, and I cannot emphasize enough how proud I am of him. He has accomplished so much, and this is just the beginning of a wonderful journey full of new adventures, independence and...

    Winter - art journal challenge july #1

    When I think of winter, I feel a mixture of emotions in my heart. There are aspects that make me smile and others that make me a little dejected. Winter brings shorter days, with the sun withdrawing its warm rays earlier and earlier. It is sometimes hard to get out of bed when it is still dark...
  6. Pause-ability

    Pause-ability

    Summer vacation has arrived, and I can feel the magic in the air. It is the ideal time to put my life on pause, to breathe and return to myself. This precious time is all about finding inner peace, to slow down and embrace the world around me. Letting the world around me fade away as I immerse...

  8. Doggy Smash

    Doggy Smash

    I used 3 papers to make the piled background. I used a paper warping action on the drop shadows of the two top papers. I clipped my large photo to a mask from Vicki Robinson's Travel kit. I took the dictionary paper overlays and placed them on the top background and then blended them slightly...
  9. Calm yourself, not the storm

    Calm yourself, not the storm

    Life sometimes resembles a wild, unpredictable storm that hits me from all sides. I am constantly faced with challenges, setbacks and unexpected events that sometimes throw me off balance. Often I frantically try to control the situation, ride out the storm and keep everything in place. But...

    Well, I decided to make a more creative page with the tag made for momma O's june challenge, since by itself, it didn't make a nice layout.

  12. Father's Day

    Father's Day

    Father's Day, a day that invites us to honor and appreciate our father. While it is true that Father's Day and Mother's Day are not officially recognized as national holidays, these special days have deep meaning and definitely deserve a place in our hearts. Although originally born out of...
  13. Gender expression

    Gender expression

    I am not adding any translation of my journaling due to the "sensitive" content.
  14. mojo lost

    mojo lost

    It seems like my creativity has gotten a little lost, and I can't find my mojo anywhere. It's strange how I normally enjoy writing in my journal, but the last few days the inspiration is lacking. It feels like my mind is stuck in this summer heat wave, and my allergic rhinitis isn't making it...

    frustration

    Today I am quite frustrated!!! It's been a whole month since my husband's car had to go to the garage, and much to my annoyance, it still hasn't been repaired. Apparently the missing part is not in stock and it can take as little as a week, but even several months before it is available. What a...

    When the shoe fits...

    I stare at the rows and rows of shoes, a motley collection of colors, styles and shapes. As I run my eyes over this spectacle, one thought occurs to me: why do some women have an obsession with shoes? It seems like a mystery that defies my comprehension. In the world of these shoe lovers, I see...
