Definition: Aggregate is a collection of items that are gathered together to form a total quantity.

The fleeting moments of knowledge in which we discover our existence are facts that can be committed to memory. We can enlarge this aggregate memory and refashion it as we go through a lifetime. By saving these memories on paper and reconstructing the images of our lives. We see the art of our lives unfolding before us.

Face the brilliance of your most wonderful creations and dwell on your dreams.
I believe in teaching, the sharing of ideas and playfulness of creating.

Mini Journal Detail


Mini Journal Pages 1 & 2
I have been thinking a lot about the left and right hemispheres of our brains. 
Some days the left side of my brain and "it's board of director"s stand in my way of creating. I was definitely feeling that way today. I feel much better now.

Stamp used.... Heads
 Mini Journal the start of Pages 3 & 4

Happy Monday to all you Crafties.....

I have been wanting to share some of my jounaling pages with you. Yet- still I feel kind of an open book..... Ha HA. 

At any rate here I saw an article in Art Jounaling (Front Page) of a DT Member friend with Stampotique.... Kate Crane. I have loved her bright pages for sometime now and to see her front and center warmed my cockles for her. 

The article is about Art Jounaling in Miniature. 
OH my this is huge answer for me. It has been my goal to do a full page a day. And I feel I have bitten off more than I can chew. But doing a Mini journal is a wonderful Idea... Plus I can easily take it anywhere. I ran down to the art store and purchased my favorite Moleskin mini books... the kind with the Kraft paper front and back. Then started taping and gessoing.


I will share more as I go... Thanks for checking in.
I love to hear your comments... so don't be shy.
