Moleskine Monday - OOTD

Happy Monday,
I hope you all had a great weekend.  So, this is my second to last Moleskine post for this year.  I do plan to carry this series into the new year as I am in the middle of my journal right now.

While I was making this page I thought about positive emotions and thoughts I could "wear" like an outfit.  Today, I choose peace.  Life is so busy right now due to the holidays and my move.  Staying calm and peaceful is the best thing I can do.

Which one would you wear today?

I shared a short process video on Instagram via Flipagram.

Moleskine Monday

I made some new rubber stamps the other day.  It's the horizontal bars you see on the far right.  I really enjoy using my own stamps.  I still dream of having my own line one day.  Well, anyway I have been trying to upload this photo all day today.  I got a new camera which came with new editing software....  I finally broke down and read the MANUAL!  Imagine that!  

I've been into abstract expressionism lately and I am trying to recreate it in my own way.  I wanted to share photos I've pinned on Pinterest for inspiration.

Create Every Day

In the Studio...

Today I wanted to share a snapshot of my desk.  I'm working in a brand new journal.  I don't know if these pages are finished yet, but I like where it's headed.

Smash Book Entry #2 & 3

Whenever I go to the museum or a gallery I try to pick up post cards so I can remember what I had seen. This just reminds me I haven't been to a good gallery in a while.  Hopefully I can go again soon.

My First Smash Book Entry

So...I finally caved and got a Smash Book.  I've wanted one for so long and when I went home to visit my parents I picked one up!  I'm very excited although I think I'm trying a bit too hard to make it perfect.  I'm sure that will fade in time but I did want to share my first entry.

 I had fun with this page and already have pics picked out for my next few pages.  

Please let me know if you like to Smash as well!
