Week Four 2011 Journal

Here is my week 4 page for my 'summary of 2011 journal' (I think I might need to come up with a catchier name for it than that! ;0). I tried to use my tickets and bits and bobs from the week as the scrapbooking elements instead of all the beautiful papers (I did sneak in a bit of In Colour DSP) I would use in my 12x12 main LOs. I'm not 100% sure I like the effect (I have very little control over the fact that the orange of a rail ticket does NOT tonally match the pale blue of a Cineworld ticket!). But it still captures exactly what I want from the week. And I am trying to use different ideas and techniques on each page so that its a creative journey as well as a recap of my year ;0)

I also had a go at creating my own Crumb Cake journalling card. I have printed one for each month of the year. So the last LO of each month I will include one which summarises the following:

This month I've been:

Listening to.... Raise Your Glass (Pink) & Forget You (Cee Lo Green)
Watching.... Glee Season 2
Reading.... The Hopeless Life of Charlie Summers (Paul  Torday)
Visiting.... The cinema
Until next weeks summary (and lots of exciting photos of Iceland hopefully!!!! So excited about my belated 30th birthday trip!),
Happy Crafting.
