Journal !!!

Journalling, So what's this all about?I see most people crafting have one of these so I thought its time to jump on the band wagon.No idea what they are really for yet so like most things, I will wing it till things become clear.It seems like a great way to keep all your ideas in one place ( a journal ) its already becoming clear. So here is page 1. I have wanted to play around with the cosmic shimmer sprays and use colours that are not my normal cup of tea, I was inspired by Helen Chilton Who was doing a demo at the craft barn, using the vivid colours and then bleaching back some of the colour,It looks really good. My next mission is to find out what the term 'Frantage' means. feel free to let me know.
For the first page I have tried to capture a sense of me,or the aspects I like in crafting, A steampunk nature boy.
