Lots of you enjoyed using my old copies of Happiful Magazine at this week's collage and vision boards workshop. I buy monthly but there are some fab subscription options. The 6 and 12 month options include a free 68-page guided journal. Worth a look

Thanks, as always, to Mermaid Alley. That mango and lime posset was 👌🤤🤤

I love taking the time to play with gelli printing. I picked up some beach treasure to make some pieces to stick in my journal and I love how all of these are so different. Next time I'll spend more time playing with layering. Thanks so much for getting me into this, Jenny!
