It's a New Year

I hope that this will be a good year for all.  Some things going on in my life that worry me right now, art seems to help keep me focused.  I know I can't change whatever happens in the next year but I am going to do what I can to make it memorable.

This Christmas and New Year's my husband and I went on a 14 day cruise, celebrating both holidays on the ship.  It was a great experience and we met lots of wonderful, friendly people.  I love the Caribbean Islands.  Everything is so colorful, lots of beautiful flowers blooming everywhere, the houses painted in bright colors, like orange, pink, blue, green, etc. and red roofs.  The water in gorgeous shades of blue and green and all the boats.  We went on a small ship the Prinsendam, which because of its size we were able to visit the smaller islands that weren't so touristy.  We had a wonderful time. 

I worked on my travel journal while we were on the ship.  Each day I printed out my photos with my POGO Polaroid printer and added them to my pages. 

Here is my handmade journal and photos of some of my journal pages -
