Joy Journal. . .

Dear Bloggie friends in Blog Land.... I'm back in one piece and so are all 40 children... We had a great time in Aubeterre sur Dronne studying ponds and the bugs that live in them.... Living with 40 children for three days had it's LOL moments and a few EWWW YUK moments. It was fun but oh I'm so glad to be home and now it's the Easter hols.... yippee.....

Yesterday I received my gorgeous Joy Journal  from Jenny over at Love and Peas, absolutely lovelovelove it. It's beautiful, she is one clever girlie. She also sent me a fantastic birdie keyring that she made and it's going to live on my school bag....

As I have been away, all my sketching this week has been on bugs, I will try and put something together to show you some amazing bugs... but for now I'm going to let you drool over Jenny's Joy Journal and birdies.. while I hop over to see Sophia at Sunday Sketches and see what you have all been up to....

Isn't Jenny fabulous. I received her last Joy Journal give away and keep it in my studio. I love to thumb through all of those fabulously blank pages filled with wonderful surprises.
Thanks for you comment on my blog today. The Pride & Prejudice piece got finished tonight and is posted if you want to take a peek. Have a great week.
