| Dried Daffodils on the page |
Hi … so sorry that I haven’t been around this week… I
thought I would be able to post something… but it has been a very full schedule
around here for over a week now.. and I think I am back… at least for a while…
As you might know… we have an organic, BIODYNAMIC farm and we plant by a
calendar… and when it tells us it is okay to plant… and things are looking good
… WE PLANT!!! This has been one of
those weeks… where we have been planting like there is no tomorrow…
Today was a fruit day… so we planted tomatoes, okra,
peppers, cantaloupe, watermelon, amaranth, all kinds of good things… over 7000 seeds were planted just today and
watered and good thoughts sent to each one of these little tiny seeds… hoping
that they grow and become full sized plants and give us lots to eat.

Other than that, I have been very busy playing with new
toys… experimenting with new inks and things from Ranger, Impression Obsession…
and other great companies… I love it
all… and love all the new things…

I also have been working very diligently on my Art Journal…
and have found a renewed LOVE with it… I
have kept art journals for over 50
years… but from time to time have not done them, lost them… put the aside… all
kinds of reasons… but this one is going to be MINE to keep.. I love the growth
I can see in it… and I love some of the techniques that I have done in here
too…
The last post you saw the cover… and now here is one of the
pages that I just did today…
A good friend, APRIL, sent me some Duckies from Impression
Obsession… that I had asked for… Thanks again APRIL… I love these little darlings… so cute… Anyway.. April sent me 16 of them… so I
thought I had better use a few… to get started on using them… LOL… I think that
they are so cute…

| Stencils, Stamps, and daffodil |
Obsession, stencils from all kinds of places… stamps, embossing folders, glazes, embossing
powders, misters with glimmers of all kinds.. and you name it… I have a huge pile
of papers that I have created and had fun making… do you know what I
mean???
So it also done a few 6x6 backgrounds… and wanted to really
use those… and I had a pretty bouquet of daffodils that needed to be used or
thrown away… and I couldn’t throw these pretties away.. so I used them…

| Embossing, collage and stenciling... love it all.. |
I added a flip panel to extend the little girls… or friends…
as friends are so very important in our lives… but the main reason is that my
theme for today in this art journal is FREEDOM…. Freedom to create as we need
and want to… freedom to do as we want to as an artist… freedom to use
everything and anything that we want to…
so that is why the little group girls ended up on this page…. FREEDOM to
use what we want to… LOVE IT
Words are so very powerful and when spoken or written they
really make a statement if we listen to them….
So FREEDOM has been my word today…
Hope that you have had a FREE day… a day where you have been able to create and
do as you wish… to create what you wanted to, how you wanted to, and of course
where you do your art thing.
Thanks for taking some of that time to stop by for a visit…
and say hello… I have challenges
starting on Sunday… but should be back with some more Art Journal pages too…
hopefully the internet will allow me to upload some pictures… we have been having some rain storms and I
was unable to get these pictures up on Friday when I started to write this… but
hopefully I can sneak them up now… Have
a great day…
Love, Light and Peace…Bonnie
