I decided to art journal where my wrinkles come from (other than the obvious age, sun, unhealthy choices, genetics).
Also for **Art*Journal*Journey* single flower challenge. If It wasn't for the single flower limit, I would have filled this page with them and overshadowed the true point.

PS - I have way more happy things in my life than bad - I have been very lucky in life! Great husband, great kids, great grandkids, great parents, great Sisters and SIL, great friends (including all of you), God and His promises, much comfort, and art! I have been blessed - I just have had a few wrinkles along the way.

So much to admire in that tiny frame of yours Robin. This stopped me in my tracks, so beautifully done and a fabulous journal page. Amazing work, as always.

Wow Nancy - this is really amazing and very gutsy to put out there. What a life. You are carrying your battle scars with amazing grace - hat's off to you for always encouraging everyone. May you find joy in your days... Hugs to you. Great take on the book cover. Frida was an amazing woman/artist. Your card honors her as well!

What a fantastic page! Artsy and meaningful. What a great way to journal about the down side of life (which are always there, how good a life one has) with a "humourus" side but oh so strong.

Nancy, your journal page is BEAUTIFUL! A CREATIVE WAY--"Art therapy?" to do this! God is SO GOOD to give us our art! It looks like you could WRITE A BOOK!!! Have you thought of it???? WONDERFULLY DONE, DEAR LADY!!! P.S. My Bible Journal WAS on it's way, but Amazon sent it to the wrong place, & then didn't try to get it to the right place. So, I am STILL WAITING for it to come in over at CBD. I keep praying it will come in SOONER THAN EXPECTED! LOL I look forward to joining you! ;)<3
