Looks like fun, Aino! I'll try to screw up the courage to take the challenge here soon. ;-)

Aino - LOVE your post! Thank you for "puttung yourself out there". The PMS one gave me the giggles. Art journaling, what a very fun and creative idea. I can see these done as 4 x 6s or 5 x 7s, to fit in a small photo album.

Anyway, thanks for starting my day with a very cool idea!

Oh, wow! This is a wonderful new thing!! I will be fascinated to see where you take us with this! Between this and Patricia's and Katrina's new challenges, there is just so much to do and dig into! I have school starting again this week, and continuing work, so I won't have much time in the next few months, but I hope I can find a little time for all these great challenges!

You already know this is way out of the box for me, but with you as my guide, Aino, I'll certainly give it a shot!

This is very exciting, Aino! I can't wait to try....
I've been pouring over journaling magazines thinking about ways to do it digitally. Now I've got a reason to move ahead faster!
I love the pages you showed on the blog. You're so amazing
