Whilst surfing the net a few days ago I found Sarah Whitmire's blog - Caspiana.

http://sarahwhitmire.blogspot.com/

If you look at one of her sidelinks it takes you to her soul journalling class which she did for free last year. How nice is it to find someone who shares something for nothing? Recently I paid to join an online class which I was really disappointed in cos no sooner did I join than she closed everthing down and I found I was the only one on the forum. No fun in that! Anyway I digress. Sarah's free soul journalling prompts are fabulous and not only does she give the prompt but talks you through lots of techniques too...wonderful!

I have been following along even though they are a year old and I joined the yahoo group too where it seems there are a few people doing the soul journalling class even now. What I like about her journalling class is that we often write lots of personal stuff and then cover it up. I have never done that before but really enjoyed the process. My journalling is so much better when I don't worry about who is reading what. Anyway, here are some of my early pages.

Take one Stamp CJ - Lion stamp!

I really wanted to do something different with this one and finally came up with the idea of stamping on shrink plastic and shrinking the lions head. Course then it took me a few days to work out something to do with.

Then whilst rummaging through my 'found and kept' items (aka junk!)I came across an old calendar with shamanistic/shapeshifter pics on it so I tore one of them up and altered it with glitter, little stars, metallic paint and wool and then stuck my face on and voila...Shapeshifter! Hope you like it Sal!


More uploads for 52Q

I am on a roll now!

Troll Bead

I have been quite addicted to troll beads for several years but it all got a new lease of life when my daughter was home last week and she encouraged me to buy this little beauty...ladies and gentlemen...I give you...black silk!

Playing catch up - 52 Q

I usually manage to keep up with the challenges that I take on as I absolutely hate things unfinished. I know...its the perfectionist in me! Anyway, I usually get things done but it takes me an age to upload them. So - I have had a major session this evening and at least now, everything is on the computer so I have a few days postings already sorted...huh!!!!

Here are 5 weeks of Emily Falconbridges 52Q's...just the fronts.

Mottisfont - April

More pages from the Mottisfont Journal...I like the different size pages and the way that some of them peak behind others.
