rubber and dribbles…

Finally I didn’t just find time, I made time to play in my journal. It was a page of layer as I started and liked, carried on and hated, got out the gesso and palette knife and covered up most of it.  The more layers I added the more I liked what was being created.

When I was happy I whipped out the rubber stamps as this page didn’t scream “write on me” and I had a nagging feeling that if I did I wouldn’t like it so much any more.

Tim’s stamp said what I needed it to say as right now I’m working hard to follow some life long dreams. It’s hard work and I have been told that I beat myself up to much when something doesn’t go to plan.  And the little girl, she represents me, as well as being my favourite stamp.  She’s becoming a fond friend in this journal.

    Oooh I like. Am I right in thinking the little girl is a Stampotique stamp?

    Love the page Vicki and also that you made yourself some me time too.
    So good to see that little girl on your page, on some of mine I seem to use a 'favourite' stamp and wondered if I over use it but now I know a real Journaller rather than a learner like me does that then Yay I can keep doing it. :-)
    Your work always inspires me and makes me want to go an play.
