Take Pictures of Everything!

I don't use my camera enough. This blog post is a great reminder to do so. My challenge to you this summer is to take pictures of anything everything that inspires you or gives you an idea for a future project. This way you don't forget!

A Cool Blog By Julie Balzer

I have been following a blog recently that I found and thought it was interesting enough to post for you to check out an enjoy too. 

Julie Balzer creates mixed media work and lots of journal pages and shares her creative process on her blog. 

In the post links to above, she has a guest blogger, Michelle LaPoint Rydell (link to her blog), who also creates very bold and graphic journals. There are lots of pictures of various journals she creates and she shares some of her favorite products she works with too.

Stop by both blogs and take a look!
