Journey into Collage – Week 11

Page eleven:

And another spread inspired by Body Restoration. All collage elements are by Melody Ross. I added tissue paper in the background. The text says “Make sure to do what feeds your soul and heart everyday.” Here’s what’s on my list: creating, walks outside, trying new things, reading, time with friends, serving others, learning new things, being grateful, reaching out, time alone, seeking light, hoping, believing, and working on dreams.” I think it’s crucial to take time every day to fill your soul. I try to take time to figure out what fills my soul.

more next week.

Journey into Collage – Week 10

Page ten:

This is another spread inspired by Body Restoration and once again the elements are by Melody Ross. It says “Be kind to everyone, you never know what they are going through.” It’s a simple page. But it helps me remember that when you’re looking at someone, you never know what’s going on inside them and how much they might be struggling. So, it’s best to just be as kind as you can be all the time. You never know; you might make someone’s day. Always, always be kind.

more next week.

The full text reads: Make a point to show yourself compassion. You are worthy.

And here’s the first page of January:

And here’s the next page:

The full text reads: Everyone deserves love and kindness, including you.

And finally here’s a compilation of all the November and December pages:

With that, I closed 2011. Not that there was much difference the next day since I continued to use my loved Roma pages until I was done with them.

More coming next week.

Journey into Collage – Week 9

Page nine:

This page was my version of one of the Body Restoration pages. All the collage elements are by Melody Ross. It says “we all have light and dark thoughts, always choose the light. always.” The left side represents the dark, terrible thoughts we have sometimes. And the right side is the wonderful happy thoughts of who you really are. The trick (the goal) is to always focus on the white. Happy thoughts.

more next week.

The full text reads: Even when you feel alone, the universe is constantly listening. You are never alone.

And here’s the next page:

The full text reads: Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Strive to be happy.

And here’s the next page:

The full text reads: It is not about not being scared. It is about being scared and doing it anyway.

And here’s the next page:

The full text reads: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly. (this quote is from the author of The Little Prince.)

And here’s the next page:

The full text reads: You can choose to grow every day.

Well here we go. More coming next week.

Journey into Collage – Week 8

Page eight:

Ok here we go. This better count as a collage! Lots of tape and paper in the back, some doodling around the frame, a butterfly from the Body Restoration class, some more little doodads and the message. That’s it for this page. It says “Everything Changes. Let go of the need to control and just enjoy life.”
