Fabric Journals

This one may be my favorite journal, so far.  Wish I had taken some close-ups of the stitching detail, my handmade bead and the little gold stars on the navy fabric.

Fabric Journals

This journal, like some of the others will have some added decoration, probably buttons and beads.

The back of this one is Iris flower print fabric with the leaf quilting.  More to come on it.  Who knows what it will be?  Maybe more butterflies.  These were cut from b/w fabric and colored with Derwent Inktense watercolor pencils.

Not sure if this will be the front or the back of a new journal, but I like it~!

Inside The New Day

These pages seem so much better to me since I added

the text to the song (see and hear below) and the pictures.

The New Day

Having trouble with this post, but I'm persistent.  *lol*

Under the flaps in this journal page are lyrics to the song:

You Are The New Day

I will love you more than me
and more than yesterday
If you can but prove to me
you are the new day

Send the sun in time for dawn
Let the birds all hail the morning
Love of life will urge me say
you are the new day

When I lay me down at night
knowing we must pay
Thoughts occur that this night might
stay yesterday

Thoughts that we as humans small
could slow worlds and end it all
lie around me where they fall
before the new day

One more day when time is running out
for everyone
Like a breath I knew would come I reach for
the new day

Hope is my philosophy
Just needs days in which to be
Love of life means hope for me
borne on a new day

You are the new day

The Venemous Toad.

Guess the only way to do it is to just...do it.

Posting my ol' critic that lives within.
