woyww & Mini Journal

I am currently working on a mini journal and have made three pages so far. Its called 'pieces of me' everything in it including the colours,images,numbers etc are pieces of me. For example the ' woman with child ' depicts me as a mother and grandmother and I have sung that song to all of my babies at one time or another. the numbers depict my 2 sons and my 7 grandchildren. And on other pages you can see i have a love of fairies (which i believed in for a very long time and am hanging on to that belief lol ) and butterflies. Many of the colours i am using depict 'Nature' which is another love of mine. I will post more pages up when they are done.

Also below are pics for the woyww which i have explained before ... i dont really have a work space but like to share just the same so these are some of my inks and stamps etc ... the journal is what i am currently working on too so that counts methinks :)
 My Resource shelf with books and things i take images from
Large drawer of wooden stamps
 Large drawer full of unmounted stamps
Large drawer of stamping inks

The pages are gorgeous, and what memories they will invoke. You may not have a dedicated craft space, but you use space well and as long as you get to be creative...!
