The page was in response to a prompt on UKS about composition. This time of year is always hard for me as it is 7 years and 4 years since my dad and brother died. I wanted to focus on the positives and have been trying to look forward instead of back and this was what the journal page was about. As we were away I had taken a few stamps, limited inks and a water colour box. I decided to limit myself to the three primary colours and black and white and play with the colour after dividing my pages into 3's. I found a John Lewis catalogue and cut out some images.
After playing around with their placement I stuck them down and added doodles and paint. I then stamped some random stamps and the TH skeleton as it was about conquering the past and its associations.
I used a posca white pen to add white doodle lines and then wrote my journalling in white/black to blend it into the page.
It helped to write down thoughts and focus on the positive and showed me I don't need many supplies to journal.
