Diary Day..... week 28


This week I am so pleased that there are pre coloured pages in my diary.
I am not one to give up  on plans made and my weekly diary is one of those , even though I may have been tempted to decorate the pages later.

I have been able to use some stencils , held in place with tape,   it was a bit of a performance to get the lids off the inkpads with
 only my right hand.   
  Okay,  its not a crisp outline to Mr U, and he is a bit smudged around the edges, I used pens for outlines  and the words.  but hey, this a goal achieved for me this week.

I have to thank Chris, using Mr U came from a fantastic journal spread
 I saw on her blog the other day.
I'll join in at Art Journal Journey  and the theme of Art for Art's sake

Thank you for calling in today,
Your visits are always very much appreciated.

  3. Oh wow! I call this fabulous! What a brilliant way to decorate your journal page and well done for battling with the ink lids! Mr UM seems appropriate for today as we are at the caravan and have at last had some rain! You certainly are adapting well to your storm -Thank you so much for linking to Art Journal Journey! Wishing you a great weekend! Hugs, Chrisx

  4. I'm only just catching up with the news of your fall (scrolled down to find out what happened, and very much enjoyed all I saw... especially that digi page - off there to take a closer look in a second)... so sorry to hear about it, and I do hope you'll find your way to bluer skies and a full recovery soon. Though I have to say I love these warm colours and the drift of raindrops onto the white diary page, and I always love Umbrella Man.

  5. Oh Yvonne but I love those blurred edges, it really adds a air of mystery about Mr U Man. I'm so glad to see you are keeping to your Diary days, here's hoping you will be back on top form very very soon.
    Creative hugs for the weekend Tracey xx

  9. Glad to see you back with some art. Fuzzy isn’t a bad thing. Especially if it’s better than not doing anything. Hope the arm is improving. Hugs. Erika

  10. You are managing remarkably well with just one arm!

  11. I wish I could make with two hands what you do with one, Yvonne! This is terrific. The minor smudging makes it look more like it rainy - maybe foggy. I bet you can't wait to get those splints off. It should be pretty soon, I hope. Hugs, Eileen

  12. Personally, you did better with your one hand and stencils, along with ink than I could have done with both hands. This is a wonderful, wonderful spread for your calendar journal. I am, as always, in love with how you treat your calendar pages. And to add to the beauty of it all, you are sharing it with us at Art Journal Journey.

  13. You will look back on this page and know it was The One-handed One and be proud. And hey, you can always tidy it up later if you care to, once you have been sprung from your prison. Love! xoxo

  15. Wow, you created such beautiful pages using the stencils! I don't know how you managed it with only one hand, and I bet you can't wait for those troublesome splints to be gone 😉. I hope you are having a lovely week! J 😊 x
