And now for....

...something completely different! The book in my last post has loads of inspiration - as well as being an amazing collection of different styles of journaling! 
This page recently caught my eye
and led me to have a go at this style.
This was a bit of a cheat really as I haven't visited any of these places, the photos were in the weekend supplements and I sat doing this on my knee one night while having one eye on the TV!
The lamp is there because it was one of my light bulb moments(they are few and far between LOL) 
I would recommend this book to anyone who loves to journal
We went away to one of my favourite places (our caravan) this weekend with two of our grandchildren and doodled a bit in quite moments(there weren't many) but didn't manage to paint anything in, so will come back to show you my page when it's complete.(No idea why I can't start at the left!!)
Thanks for looking, Chris

    I've got that book too Chris - it is fab:) You've made an excellent job with your sketched page - I love it - I don't think it matters whether you've been to those places - its all about the process, what's in your heart, what you wanted to draw etc :D

    Chris, I really enjoyed looking at your site. My daughter, Carol (see previous comment!) just emailed me to recommend your site because it was the kind of work I like to see, and to do. I'll keep watching.
