Wreck this Journal Final Day

Its hard to believe its over, I have spent nine weeks with this book and an amazing group of woman. We have all wrecked our journals and opened up and grown in amazing ways. What a ride its been. Thanks to Jamie for leading us and all the wonderful participants.

Jamie asked us to think about what we learned from the experience and what we want to say yes to. For me I learned there are no limits. I can take the idea from the journal out to my own life. The possibilities are endless. As to what I want to say yes to, I want to say yes to everything. I will have more fun, celebrate more often and reach high to achieve my goals. I keep thinking I can do it and I will. I think the experience has given me wings in ways I had not imagined.

Wreck this Journal week 8

Welcome to week 8 of wreck this journal. I thought it was our last week but it looks like we are going for another week. I have more pages to do so that works out great for me. Enjoy all the wrecking.

Wreck this Journal week 7

Its week 7 in the wrecking and I am still enjoying the process. I hope you enjoy the video of my efforts.

Wreck this Journal week 6

No video this week since I can not find my flip camcorder or my point and shoot canon which has a little movie camera on it. I found it hard to take picture of the WTJ pages since the cook is kind of warped now.

As Jamie mentioned slowing down I too experienced that. When I was gone for a week I really lost my momentum. First I took the book in the shower and it got quite wet so the cover is coming off.


















Next I added more stamps to that page'
















This is a page where I had friends draw on.















I took a walk in the field and picked up all these things. Some plants I found interesting, some trash and a firecracker and this little bone that I thought was so cute.
















Here is my page of bad drawings.


















This is the page where you do pencil rubbings. I used some rubber stamps. The top one is text and the bottom is a stamp that looks like marble.

As we get towards the end I find it is harder to find those easy pages to do the ones I don't have to think about or prepare something for. So its time to get creative with it.

So how has the wrecking affected other things, well I have started de cluttering my house again. I have gone through 3 kitchen drawers and am moving on to some closets next. The clearing out feels so good.

Wreck this Journal Week 5

This is the paper chain that I colored with water soluble pastels and then my kitty found it and wrecked it. I think that is appropriate, even the kitty is getting into the act.









This is that pencil that I talked about that changes color. It seems either write in yellow and orange and then turns to green and blue. It is a pretty fun thing to play with.
