Happy Thursday Everyone!! I am so happy that Friday is right around the corner. I love getting to spend time with my family on the weekends, but this weekend is when Flying Unicorn will be revealing this months kits. *SQUEEEEE* I have already ordered mine during the sneak peak pre-orders and I am (very un-) patiently waiting for it to arrive in the mail. :) In the mean time I have been on an art journaling kick lately. I wanted to share a page that I created recently.
I came across a quote by Georgia O'Keefe recently that has really spoken to my heart. "I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way". Have you ever felt that way?

| Challenging myself to use my sticker hoard, my gem hoard, my doily hoard, awesome paper clip hoard, and lace hoard. Oh my I am beginning to see a hoarding issue. LOL |
 |
| Here is an over view of the entire page. I am really loving this mica flakes that came in my February kit. I really love how soft and pretty my Lindy's sprays turned out. |

| I really love the way this butterfly tucks so perfectly into the fold of the book pages. I am NOT good at rub ons. I love watching people use them on their projects. However, when I try oh my goodness you should see the fail. This time they came out amazing. Maybe I it was because I slowed down and took my time and really relaxed while making this page. |

| Here is a close up of the mica flakes, I love this heart vines lace, I found it at a local flea market here. How awesome do the Lindy's sprays look? I find that I am happier with the results of using them when I use a paint brush the move them around the page. I am really thinking this page may have been a page about craft supply hoarding. :) |

| I love this tulle flower that I received in a swap. |
 |
| I usually LOVE the stickers I buy when I am in the store buying them. I get them home and put them in their nice organized drawer and then, wham I never use them. Well, no more I say. I have come the conclusion that if I don't use them I can buy more. |
 |
| This was the first time I have ever tried to stamp with liquid India ink. I think the harlequin stamp came out awesome. Esp for not using an ink pad. I am really loving using found objects such as caps. |

I am so happy and grateful that I have begun expressing myself in my art journal. There really are things that are best not seen by others. This way I can get my feeling (good or bad) out and onto the paper.
I hope you all have a wonderful day!!
