Hi everyone!

Today I'm again working in my whimsical houses journal. Today's little home is all about where the bees live :)

Again I had to trace the house and details, still not confident in drawing them myself. One day LOL

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!

Today's page was inspired by Sara (my serenity crafts on YouTube). I have been binge watching Sara's videos for a couple of weeks now. I love her style! It takes me back to my folk art days and my patchwork quilting days. I used to love creating quilts with lots of applique - designs in this style. So when I found Sara I knew I just had to attempt one of her pages.

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.
