April/May Calendar Challenge

I settled on writing just one or two words to describe my days in April  - found it much easier!  Its a very bright page....


and I seem to be having a purple phase for May.

Carol
This looks fun but for me, I'd find it an intimidating style to work with. It comes so easily for you(as does anything you do)

Smashing pages Carol. Love Dyan's characters on the first pages (just treated myself to my first couple of her stamp sets) and the Paper Artsy ones look great on the second set of pages.

The journal's going to look fabulous when it is complete.

Carol the amount of arty people recently who have said they cant work with purple (myself included!) yet your May page makes it look so wonderful - please tell me the secret!
Gorgous pages and sometimes one word is just enough.
