Journey into Collage – Week 30

This is the second assignment for Your Living Canvas. This one is about balance and it has six F’s: faith, finance, fitness, family, friends, and fun. The idea is to write out all the ways in which you want to change your life so you can balance all of these well. I wrote my list and then broke it down to these six sections. In each of them I wrote goals and specific actions I want to take. The overall theme was that I want to reconnect to all of these areas of my life hence the title.

The quote says: It is time to connect again.

Journey into Collage – Week 29

This is my first assignment for Your Living Canvas class. The first week was about your story and as I wrote mine, one of the things that came up for me was that I have a lot of instances in my life where I made big leaps of faith or did things others would consider brave. This was a big deal to me, especially now cause I am not feeling so brave at the moment. So I decided to make this page as a reminder to myself. I wrote some of the things on top of the big butterflies and then more around the smaller ones.

The quote says: I am brave.

Journey into Collage – Week 28

This page so didn’t turn out how I anticipated. I had this cloth of fabric from a while ago and wanted to do something with it. Alas, not all pages turn out the way we hope.

The quote says: Begin living life today.
