Wreck This Journal - Part One

Photo by Diana.

I happily joined Diana's Wreck This Journal Party. Even though I'm still waiting for it to arrive in the mail, I'm super excited about it!

Read about the project here.

As you may have understood by now (I've already said it like a thousand times), Diana is one of my favourite bloggers and a huge inspiration. Ashley left a great comment the other day which says it all:

"I know everyone raves about this book, but I never really saw the point. I mean, why poke holes in a page or spill things on it purposefully? To me, it never made sense.

UNTIL JUST NOW!

The way you talk about being "safe" and not going too crazy with this book and being adult about it... That's the point of it! It isn't to be super creative and create masterpieces... it's to be creative in experimentation and to break the mental boundaries we create for ourselves. I think I might go and buy this book now, thanks to you."

The author Keri Smith also wrote How To Be An Explorer Of The World and I'm doing both projects simultaneously, I might not post that much about the latest as it can get very personal (plus, I write in a weird mix of English, Norwegian & French) but I'll try to show bits and pieces of my doodles from time to time.

The Girl & The Geese

There was a girl who talked to geese

She understood them and they her

One day she looked into a crystal stream

And saw in its bed a diamond

She picked it up and placed it in her hair

As she did so, she turned into a geese

It was then revealed that the other geese

She magically had understood

Were once human like her

Just so you know...

Ada's in Australia right now and the reason why you haven't heard from her in a while is because she's getting ready for an amazing trip. Galit's taking her to... Israel. And Hong Kong. (!!!)

I joined Diana on her Wreck This Journal project and I'm eagerly waiting for the copy she sent me. She created a Flickr group and I just can't wait to get started.

If any of you feels like submitting something for the Talking Trees project, please do it now before it gets too cold... or wait for spring.

After a long break, Her & Der is back, Astrid & I update it every Sunday. Don't hesitate to suggest us a theme here.

Oh and we'll have new guests for the Photographic Diaries soon. I'm super excited about it!

Now, here are a few questions...

1) About the Photographic Diaries.

Remember the one about tattoos? Any other theme you'd like to see?

2) What about having an outfit suggestion box?

I mean, you give me a theme, a colour, a challenge, whatever and I have to come up with an outfit matching it. Sounds fun, don't you think?

3) Anything you'd like to see here? More this? Less that?

Don't hesitate, tell me!

Thank you for stopping by.
