365 calendar challenge: I’m back!

Yeah okay, I know it’s not really a 365 calendar challenge if you take several months off halfway through, but life happens. I’m sure Kate doesn’t mind. I’ve got a baby. And sometimes babies trump art! The main thing is, I’m back and rearing to go!  Because this is the best kind of journaling with a little one around.

This is what my October page looks like at the moment. As you can see I went with a Halloween theme. A little predictable maybe, but that’s the way it is. I’m hoping to add some images of the kids in their costumes in the margins at the end of the month.

I had better go- Kirby has started ripping the paper out of the printer!

  1. That’s the perfect way to do a bit of journaling. You aren’t faced with an entire page and no time to fill it. I’m thinking about doing a calendar next year. Maybe if I start making the pages now I’ll be ready!
