BEGIN AGAIN


Yesterday I was inspired to finally pick up on creating a journal that I actually stated 2+ years ago, when i signed up for an online class by the wonderful artist Kelly Kilmer!  I have admired Kelly's style, techniques, and her blog for a loooong time. I am curious if anyone else does this, say, starts a class and doesn't finsih it for some reason, then longs to do it, but just doesn't , until finally you push and MAKE yourself try, and then you wonder, WHY did I procrastinate for so long?  It never ceases to amaze me! 
Well, I find this process very different, and a bit scary, but that's why it is fun, and I feel I NEED to try new things, I crave to know new things. I am not sure of how this came out, I am fairly happy with it, but, well, I have to get used to unchartered territory.  Writing in a journal is new to me, and I want to try to get past that phobia of not writing, so with this one I let it fly! 
I think if you visit Kelly's blog here, you  will see she posts everyday, always sharing tips and techniques, and although I only ever signed up for one class, she shares of a wealth of info in her classes.

Thanks for visiting today, and as always, your wonderful comments!

Hi Sharon
Well I really admire you for stepping out of your comfort zone to try one of Kelly's workshops. I did check out her blog and she is offering quite a number there.
Which one are you signing up for?
I'm eager to see how you go with it.
Wishing you luck but I know you won't need that! - just the determination to finish! I am one that just has to finish to the end!
Sending love and thanks for your beautiful comments.

Yay! You did it! : )
This is a fab journal page! I love everything about it! I am so glad you were able to get to it. It feels so good when we sit down and "do it" lol! I have walked away from projects before too, and then one day it is just the right day to do it.
Hugs,
Terri

Your page is wonderful!!! Thank you for posting.

I have several students who are like that which is why I stress that the class is work at your own pace and always there when you are ready to work on it. :) Even classes where the prompts are daily are there and ready for you whenever you need them.

Thanks for the kind words, too. :)

IT IS A WONDERFUL new way of collage and journaling you have made here, dear Sharon.
I love the idea about writing in the journal, and think I would have difficultíes about doing it myself!
It loooks wonderful with your white doodling, also.
I almost alwayes finish my products, but that is of need, because it have to go into my shop, so not too much time for playing or trying!
I`m happy for you that you took this class up again, and finished your gorgeous collage page.
Love and warm hugs from Dorthe
