HI Everyone!
This is my first Moleskine, always wondered what the big deal was about these journals, and finally I found out! The smooth and creamy surface, soft parchment colored pages just waiting to be used. I'd like to share a few pages with you from my new Moleskine journal:
|
May Day |
Usually I'm pretty intimidated by the first pages of a new journal but not this time, it was May 1st, May Day when my journal arrived, I thought it was only right to fill the first page with thoughts about this special day.
|
Playing with Brianne-Night & Day |
Often inspiration comes from spending time coloring with my granddaughters Brianne and Lyla. This particular day we were talking about day and night time and I was showing Brianne how to draw a house. I came home and did this page in my journal. I loved her comment when we were coloring "grass has many colors, add more to make it interesting."
|
Win Place Show |
|
Kentucky Derby |
On the first Saturday in May we gather together with other horse racing fans to watch the Kentucky Derby. This year we were home and I did a little sketch and then transferred the images of the day into my journal.
|
Orchids in the window |
This particular morning I was up making coffee and the sun was coming softly through the kitchen window illuminating the massive white orchid blooms. I grabbed my journal and sketched the flowers and finished them in the studio. These orchids were from my daughter Amanda's wedding last July.
I hope you enjoyed these pages, please join me again next week when I will share more from this journal. Ya'll come back now, ya hear!
Happy Doodles!

I don't know how I am related to you! Your artwork is amazing. I stand in awe of your gift and I'm trying hard not be a bit jealous of my beautiful sisters talent ;) I would love the orchid as a print!
Dear Sweet Sister, you make me smile. Mama was my biggest fan, now, I think you might be! :-) Thank you for your kind words which are such an encouragement to me. Love You! xoxox

Love your pages Suzy, enjoy that Moleskine! HPPF!
I'm so glad you shared your feelings about the moleskin journal. I had been curious too about what made it special. Your paintings are beautiful.
Beautiful pages, Suzy! I haven't tried a Moleskine...maybe it's time I did! Happy PPF - janice
I love both your journal pages and Brianne's comment about adding color. Little girls are so smart. Have a wonderful week.
Hi Suzy, thank-you so much for joining my little blog, much appreciated sweetie. Lol I think you have me mixed up with someone else though, I have no books published and just craft as much as I can in what little spare time I have between looking after my 2 young children. I love your drawings and you may just have tempted me to try the moleskins now!! Hugs x
Dear Suzy,
your Journal art is just beautiful. I love this style and the Colors are perfect. Your May day is looking magic ♥
Happy PPF
