My First Summer Journal Page

A Summer Journal

Today is the first day of a new challenge for me, a Summer Journal. The idea comes from Myfanwy Hart and her Be Creative Group on Facebook. To avoid a summer of sport and to do something more creative she has started a journal group. We will be receiving a daily prompt for the next two months (July and August), this prompt will lead us to do something creative in our own style.....today's prompt was to 'listen carefully' to what was around us.
