It's Trudi back with you today.  We were challenged to design a vision board this month.  Now I confess to having a 'bucket list' of things I want to do and achieve and a whole lot of personal goals I would like to work on.  Rather than create a board concept, I have gone with the art journal approach.  I am totally new to art journaling, but with saying that I am totally up to the challenge. This page is all about remembering to 'breathe', letting go and acceptance.

Hi everyone, Beck Beattie here today with a bit of a different post.  I was so excited that the Francheville line was going to be including glitter glue.  Who doesn't love a bit of glitter?  I'm not sure but I can say my boy's love it as much as me!  With slime being all the rage my boys wanted to make some of their own, so we headed off to Spotlight to pick up some supplies.  My boys were so excited by the range of glitter colours that I received the day prior that they begged me to use some in their slime.  It was the perfect addition!
