Sometimes you don't need

a BIG three star OVERLY COMPLICATED reason to do something

 just do it cos you love it!
So I did! This is the first page in a new journal that I bought while in PARIS over the weekend (more of that later when I have had chance to sort my photos).
I read on KATE CRANES blog......the KATHRYN WHEEL......that she sometimes likes to work in a small journal as it is quicker with less space to fill.........this set me thinking and when I saw this little booklet in MUJI I bought it....it is only the size of a passport!

 When I got home yesterday some MEMORY BOX stamps had arrived from THE STAMP ATTIC so this was another good reason to have a play. They have some gorgeous bird stamps......here I have used DILL PRINT, DISTRESSED CROWS, CROW and BIRD IN FLIGHT

The birds are stamped over a DISTRESS INK background so I am entering this for the SIMON SAYS STAMP AND SHOW challenge where the theme this week is DISTRESS INKS!

So windy, how do they stay in the air. That is a great effect you have created. You make me feel like getting my paints out.
