Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful, your technique doesn't have to be perfect and an idea doesn't have to be the most inspirational ever to deserve being played with in your journal.
Thank you to the amazing Teesha Moore for her incredible generosity. I spent yesterday devouring her videos on Youtube and playing with the techniques she uses. She covers so much including making your own journal, painting the background, adding collage elements and making it your own with outlining, doodling and lettering.
This quote jumped out at me on Pinterest this morning. The most important thing I learnt from watching Teesha Moore's videos is that if you have an idea you should go with it. She reminds us that everything can be fixed and there's no point not at least giving your idea a try.
These pages took me places I have never been before and I'm really excited by how they turned out.
It was an opportunity for me to be brave and step out of my comfort zone.
This demure young lady is encouraging me to link this blog post to the Fall Fearless and Fly challenge over at Artists in Blogland, to Art Journal Every Day and to Creative Every Day.

Oh Wow! these are great, I'm so glad you are having fun with Teesha's techniques. If you ever get the chance to attend a workshop with her I highly recommend it. She is a beautiful soul, kind and generous and great fun to be with.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work.
