Soul Journal pages 3,4,5 & 6






I have struggled for a couple of weeks not sure about the pictures for pages 3 & 4.
The pictures that were suggested held no meaning for me, and I wanted my Soul Journal to be full of meaning.
I struggled with the decision but finally decided to use magazine cuttings but different from the ones that had been suggested.
Above my images I have wrote prompts for myself,
* To remember the past
* To remember excitement
* To remember love
* To remember to hope
* To remember to walk
* To remember to hear
* To remember to drink water
* To remember to love
and lastly
* To remember to Dream.

I am happy with my cuttings and now these pages have meaning for me.

Pages 5 & 6 started out a pretty blue and have ended up very dark with touches of metallic gold paint. Although dark they are still very me and again have some meaning, I wrote my text beneath the layers of tape and then the pages have had about 5 coats of paint, my text is well hidden........

Ive had a good time with these pages , although I havent followed the instructions to the letter, Im pleased with what I have done. Thank you for visiting my blog.
