That's more like it!!

Hi everyone, everything slowly finding a place now! There is a long way to go, but I have managed to clear enough space on my craft desk to finish a journal page that I have been adding to in short bursts for over a week now!
I'm not so happy with it as my Mojo is playing hide and seek but I did want to join Yvonne again at Art Journal Journey with her 'Words and Numbers' theme!
I used some stencil mop ups before I started adding some stamping with paper Artsy stamps and Aall and Create stencils.

The quote made me smile as it is about making a beginning - exactly what I did!

Thanks for looking, Chris

A fantastic page Chris and I do like the quote, we all have to start at the beginning. Thank you for joining us at Art journal Journal and finding time to enjoy a bit of crafting.

I am glad you cleared off your workspace to be able to share this page with us. It sounds like you have your handsful with your unpacking. I hope you wrap it up soon. Have a happy new year. Hugs-Erika

I know that feeling of having too many boxes or not enough places to put things. I'm glad you found a way to set aside both time and space to create this great journal entry with a beautiful quote by Goethe. I like the monochromatic feel to the piece, too. Thanks for sharing it with us at Art Journal Journey, dear friend.

You have such great mop up pages, Chris. It must be nice not to face a blank page when you want to journal. I bet it feels nice also to have a cleaner space to create in. I decluttered this past year and I feel lighter and more free. Eileen xx

Beautiful page and I'm loving the quote that you added, so inspirational 😁. So glad to hear that you are getting up everything back in order again and finding homes for everything. Wishing you a happy and peaceful New Year! Hugs, Jo x

Looks pretty sweet for having no mojo and working in spurts, I'd say. :)

I think it's a lovely page - the gradual build up of layers has given it a beautiful depth, and the bumblebee makes me smile. So glad to hear you are starting to get straight... I can easily imagine that the mojo can go walkabout when you're trying to find the space to create. (Eeekk... not looking forward to transporting my craft room across a continent this coming year!).
