Day 20 ...My Front Door. Well this isn't my front door but I have always wanted a barn door! Preferably attached to a cottage haha I used acrylics & wax for this one.
Day 21...Bluebells. I was going to go for snowdrops because they are easier to draw but then I thought that as this is supposed to be challenging I should attempt the bluebells & not be a chicken! I so feel that there should be something opposite them tho...that big gap is bothering me still!
Day 22...A day in my Life. I spent an age on this one. You can see that I made a feeble attempt to draw myself from my avatar pic above hahaha! I am thinking now that I need to get some 'face' colours!!! I used the lovely Derwent Coloursoft pencils for my picture...the rest is watered down acrylics. I threw rock salt at the wet acrylic and when it was nearly dry I used the heat gun. Makes a lovely nobbly effect beacause some of the salt melts!!!
Day 23...My Favourite Poem. this speaks for itself really hahaha! Wax crayons for this one.
Day 24...Circles. I nearly went blind drawing all the little circles hahahaha! I used Inktense pencils for this one.
So there you are...all done!!!! I have certainly learnt a lot from doing this. So if you fancy a go (the prompts are up permenantly) go for it! Don't be scared...remember that if you don't like a page you can just bin it & start again! Thank you for looking today my lovelies, HUGS XXX

Cor Karen you are such a clever crafter. Your pages look amazing. :) Something to treasure & look back on!
Ooh He's called the hidden paw! I love TS Elliot's Cat poems, they are brilliant and so are your pages, you have really progressed. I think your self portrait is really good, I did recognise you right away.
Fab pages and your self portrait looks brilliant, much better than my attempts at drawing would be, I can tell you!

p.s. the tissue thing... I sort of roll it into a tube and then fold it over to get an edge (does that make sense..lol) it's a lot less forgiving than a tortillion
WOW & wow your journaling pages are fantastic! love them all. I can see I have been missing some great work.
Unusual that Cornwall has grey wet weather when in the NW it lovely and warm with the sun still shining at almost 5pm
