Okay, here is my first page for my December journal. Shimelle's prompt today was for a manifesto or intention of what we want this journal to be or why...

I am using some elements that I used last year as well as new ones...trying to stick with just one package of papers and theme of colors...red, kraft, black, ivory seem to be the ones that speak to me this year...

so, here it is, my first page:

I'm sorry to hear about your friend.
I don't think it would be wrong to scrap about that....especially if you're truly documenting something from each day.

Love it Cricket and Monica!! We can all motivate each other!

I love Polka Dots too!! I got a set of 6 coffee mugs for my birthday. Each a different color. Very cute

[Stacey]

i have polka dot seats on my dining chairs and polka dot side chairs and polka dot wrapping paper...where did you find that mug there monica? cause i think i need one of those! i saw some really cute polka dot bowls the other day but they were really pricey. gonna watch and see if they go on sale!

[Stacey]

those are great layouts though ladies.....
I love the cup mon!!

[Stacey]

what if you put the pic above the journaling cricket? very cute layout!

i'm disappointed we had snow in texas and no time for pics of it this morning and of course the prompt today is about the weather!!! *sigh* help me think outside the box?

[Cricket]

Great idea about the pic Stacey..I'll try that out!

How about you journal about your feelings about snow in Texas, and that you missed your opportunity this morning to take a picture of the snow...maybe cut and paste an article from online about the weather today in Texas?? Just some thoughts...

[Cricket]

Okay Stacey...took your advice and re-did the layout's journaling placement! Thank you, thank you!! I like this sooo much better!!
