Journaling Through Life

I thought that I would just share 

a few more journal pages with you today.

I really enjoy working in my art journal, 

while watching TV in the evening with Steve.

Especially when he is enjoying some 

of his redneck programs, like: 

 Ice Road Truckers, Axe Men, 

Swamp Men, Mountain Men . . .

 every time I watch one, 

it seems to me like it is 

the same program we saw the week

 before, or the week before that.  

Oh well, the nice part is 

I can draw and enjoy myself, 

while he's enjoying his shows

. . .and 
we are both enjoying just being together.

I don't remember the advertisement, 

or the article

that I cut this question mark from,

but when I saw it 
I just had to cut it out 
and draw a page around it. 


******************

Sometimes I just see a quote 

and have to put it in my journal.

It's fun just haphazardly designing a page 

as your imagination just drifts along . . . 

it's like a silly little stroll 

down a lazy little dirt path.

You're enjoying the process, 
even though you don't know where it going.

When I'm journaling in the family room 

in front of the TV, 

I prefer to use clean rather 

than messy media.  

Therefore; I like using colored pencil, 

then when I'm finished with 

the colored pencil, 

to give it some pop, 

I go over it with colored chalk 

and old & dollar store make-up 

(blush, eye shadow, etc).  I use 

a cotton ball or a tissue to apply it.  

On this page I found my ukelele player 

on the web and the two bathing beauties 

are cut from an old vintage 

McCalls pattern. 

If you do not journal and you're looking 

for a relaxing pastime, 

I suggest you give it a try.  

I'm having so much fun!

Well, there it is, another post.

I try to do one a week.

Thank you all for stopping by 

and visiting.

If I could I would have tea 

and scones waiting on the table 

for you when you drop in.  

Have a wonderful week 

and 

keep blogging.

Connie :)
