Happy Sunday, everyone....
I hope that everyone is enjoying their weekend! I am finally getting caught up from being gone. We visited our oldest in Oregon and also made a stop in Colorado. We went zip lining and did atv's in the Colorado mountains. Wow, is all I can say. I posted a picture of me on the atv. When we reached the top of the trail, it was an amazing view for us.
Being inspired by so much color, I came back and created my next piece. As most of you are aware...I have made journals of all kinds over the past 20 years. I wanted to change it up a bit and decided to go a bit larger and work with watercolor paper.
This is a 9 x 11 3/4 journal. I love the size and feel of this one. I incorporated vintage paper, tissue, acrylics, inks, paste and pencils on this cover. The tree was an image transfer that I did...loving that look. I have done then in the past, but it had been a while since I had incorporated one and felt that this is the perfect place for it.
I included 10 sheets of blank paper and if you count the backsides, that would make 20.
I have listed this in my etsy.
I love, love all your journals, all you art work!

Larger journals are a cool idea and these pages are beautiful.
