Hi everyone!

Today I had fun playing in my whimsy journal. It's been a while since I created a page in this notebook journal.

I just drew some scenic elements, painted and added a few details and voila! Done! These pages are so much fun because there are no rules - just playing and maybe learn a thing or two along the way.

Hi everyone!

For today's page I wanted to get back to what I do best (in my humble opinion LOL). I love to create backgrounds but I can't just leave it there. So I think about what the background means to me and I search related images on google. Or I search google first, then base the background on the image. That's what I did today, googled the image first and I'm happy with how it turned out!

Hi everyone!

I decided I'm really loving the whimsical look of journal pages and so I decided I would create a whole journal dedicated to whimsical houses and scenes. I've made notebook journals and have them sitting on my desk doing nothing so I decided to put them to good use.

This first page is fairly basic, with a background and a few elements on the page but that's it. I'm hoping that with practice I can create great pages using this whimsical theme.
