here's the finished spread
i am learning quite a bit as i do these
what i like and what i don't
leaving a bit of space between writing and elements, not overcrowding things
i smeared the ink on the top left corner (bummer) and just left it, life is messy
there are things i would do different on this page if i had it to do over, but that's okay
not sure i am totally pleased with the colors, but it's one journal spread, there will be more
hope you all have a good weekend
do something fun

Life is messy, but this looks well used and not messy to me. I am enjoying the photos and the graphic nature of your lettering. xox Corrine
Yes, sister, we do have choices and thank God for that...This seems to be a very interesting class....
I love the spread and I love the colors...It's showing teal on my computer and that's one of my favorite colors..
We are going to a family wedding so that should be fun...Do you have fun plans?
It's a striking spread, love the repetitive use of your Mom's photo, and I love the messy ink splash
I love the ink smudge too!
everything about it...isn't it
grand to have so many toys:)

Such a warm journal spread... I love it all, even the ink smear because, as you said, life can be messy! Your photos of your Mom are so beautiful, and I really like how you repeated them. Enjoy your weekend, my friend!
Those pictures of your mom just stop me every time ! She is so beautiful !
I like the messy. I even dreamed that I was painting with ink and smeared it last night...funny. But messy is a lot easier for me to understand than perfectly tidy, that's for sure.
The color is maybe not quite your usual vibrancy but as you say, it is an okay thing to try and move on...
Have a wonderful weekend, Beautiful Mary ! Play, play, play !
I'm crazy about the colors here: aqua, peach, black with some yellow and rosy spots!
this is one of my favorite pages ever. i love the colors and images. beautiful!!
LOVE this spread, Mar and the colors are great. Yes, you are right...life is messy---and I like the ink smear.
I love that photo of mom too, but I can't remember her being the "Leave it to Beaver" mom because she really didn't have time for us, she was so busy with all the things she thought were important...yes we do have choices! love you sis!
Beautiful...and yes, life is messy!
Mary, I didn't really notice the smudge, but I think it adds 'character' and you are SO right: Life is messy!
beautiful! very "judy wise"-ish.
can't wait to see that table.
