I felt really 'free' with this template and just played.

I used one backing paper (a ledger sheet). 
 Instead of more strips or layers of backing papers,  I used oil based pastels and smudged them. 

It really was great fun.

It doesn't look quite so bare in real life as it does in the photo - mainly because you can see the light shading of the smudged pastels and lines and columns of the ledger page.

These templates are really good fun and so very challenging - well they are to me!

And maybe at a later stage I will have something more to write about!

You know, when I remember all the other stuff you're signed up for Lottie, you're doing a brilliant job of learning to journal! Don't be so hard on yourself!xx
