Monthly Calendar Journal page - May

Hi I have been doing a monthly calendar Journal page in some of my journals since January, when I attended  a workshop at Art From The Heart  done by Kate Crane.  I do each page in whatever style I like and then fill in each day as a mini journal.  The pages I have done so far this year seem to be a bit gloomy and seem to have quite a grungy feel, so this month I decided I would make sure that I did something much Brighter.  I think I might have gone a bit overboard!!!  It feels like a christmas page on steroids!!!!


I used 4 Dylusions sprays for the background and painted the circles with ranger paint dabbers.
I think it might need a brightness button so that I can turn it down a bit!  LOL x

  15. Woohoo! Love seeing your calendar page on your blog :-) It's not too bright for me LOL! But I have to agree - very different for you. Where are the autumnal shades?! Love the 3-D circles - they really jump out from the page. Well done for keeping up with the calendar - only the hardcore calendar journalers are left in now LOL!
