My First ROD Journal

My First ROD Journal

One of my favorite bloggers is Mary Ann Moss from Dispatch From LA. Her blog is always a bounty of beautiful colors, intriguing photos, and inspriation. I especially love the peeks into her visual journals. I’ve wanting to try my hand at visual journaling for some time and, lucky for me, Mary Ann offers a wonderful online class on creating journals like hers. So, I finally took the plunge and created my first Remains of the Day journal.

I plan to use this journal to cronicle our trip to Colorado this past June.

We had a wonderful time exploring the beautiful mountains with our very good friends, Steve and Meredith, and I’m looking forward to reliving the trip in this journal. Here are a few more pics before any journaling.

Day of the Dead ATC

Day of the Dead ATC

I’m playing on a new site for ATC swaps: http://www.atcsforall.com/index.php I’ve completed two swaps there and a few 1-to-1 trades and they have been really great. This site seems to have a more experienced group of artists and that is exactly what I was missing on some of the old yahoo groups where I was swapping. I just got my cards for a Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) swap. Here are some of the ones that I created.
