So excited about a challenge I gave myself!  I got new Tombo markers earlier this year and LOVE them...so I decided to see what I could do with them in a journal.  This is my latest work I did using them.  I love that the markers blend together so smoothly without ruining the true color of the marker.  It is like using watercolor.  I can blend with the colored markers, use the blending marker or just a wet brush to get the blending. 
    I have also found that the type of paper is key to the effect that I want.  I finally found that I like the
Canson Mix Media journals the best.

Learning to love life no matter what stage of life I am in.

Learning how to spread my wings creatively.

 With the beginning of each year I always wonder what God has in store for me and my family.  Last year was an amazing year!  Through all of the hard times God was faithful and worked miracles for my family.
