Lorraine, your journal pages are so beautifully done. Even the writing is gorgeous! Funny you should mention goat milk soap. I just discovered yesterday that I had an opened bar (Christmas present) and gave it its first use. Lavender is such a soothing scent.

I love farmers markets too! Although with mobility issues now I no longer go. My daughter often buys soaps for me....with Patchouli in them. I love your journal pages...I clicked to enlarge them to get the full beautiful affect of the art and words!! Thanks for sharing!

Hugs Giggles

You have created some beautiful paintings from a beautiful source of inspiration! I love markets!
And that soap looks just to my taste with lots of lavender :-)
Happy PPF

beautiful sketches!! I am learning (from seeing pages like these)that I need to not spend too much time on all the details and be looser with the pen marks-def. a WIP. I love the scent of lavender so these soaps are very appealing to me. Happy PPF!

How beautiful. Your journal art is extraordinary. I love the verses and your writing style is beautiful. Your artwork just fills my eyes--which is the greatest compliment I can give.
