SOUL JOURNALING: Day 2


Here is what I have done to complete the randomly papered, gessoed and journaled pages in my previous posting. I am thoroughly enjoying the "soul journaling" experience!

SOUL JOURNALING: Beginning: Day 1






Karen BP shared an interesting and inspiring site with the Calendargirlz recently, on "soul journaling". On the site are daily instructions for creating your own soul journal. I fell in love with the idea and started making my own. Using the daily prompts, this is what I have come up with so far.
