Altered Art Journal Letter S


I thought my muse took a vacation in regards to this journal. I could not for the life of me remember what I wanted to do for this page. I have been working on my paintings "Marie Antoinette" and "Believe in your Dreams" for the past month. This journal has taken a back seat to the paintings. The other day while blogging I went to Mixed Media Monday and notice the next weeks prompt was beaches. A light bulb went off in my head. Duh... I remembered the Sea was what I had intended to use. I love to go to the coast. I knew all along a beach theme was what I wanted to do for letter S.
I guess I'm losing my memory. I need to start writing ideas down. Thank goodness for challenge blogs like MMM.

    I know exactly what you mean. Challenge blogs crank my creativity up when my muse is silent, and I get so much inspiration from artists like you. These journal pages are fabulous!
