February already...and a second look at my master board!

Hi everyone, we're one month into the new year already! It caught me unawares and I only completed my calendar journal this morning!

 I used my favourite Crafty Individuals background stamp and used a gifted fancy square punch to make my journal spots - inked around the edges as they sank into the background!
I used Aall and Create's Tracy Evans hearts set which I stamped and then coloured with water colour paints.

Here is January's all filled in for those off you who like to look!

We were out most of yesterday and today for a variety of reasons so I am still on catch up with everything

This is for Elizabeth's new theme at Art Journal Journey - 'Hearts'

For my 2nd on the second post over at the Altered Boook Lover - Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog I found that I actually made the master board that I used in my previous post back in February 2012, the year we moved into our apartment!

I've doodled and doodled and this is what it looks like now.

As I mentioned in my last post I have been taking part in Traci Bautista's online workshops. Okay, so I should still be sorting etc. but a girl needs to express herself and I have found this to be so relaxing!
Here are some shots of parts of the whole piece.

I decided to paint the back, which I did with Dylusions paints and Twinkling H2os

and some little shots

Now I suppose I really must get back to doing something really useful LOL!
