Dear Gwen

 Dear Gwen,

I had been journaling for several years when I discovered your book The Decorated Page at my local library (YEAH for libraries!). The ideas in this book were just what I needed to jump-start my creativity and produce what I call "journaling with embellishment". Just adding a little bit of color via watercolor, colored pencils or markers, can brighten up a page. And a strip of collage paper can add drama. And it makes the process of journaling more fun. Record the facts, record you feelings, and then jazz it up with color, shape, form, line, perspective, and the words seem much more important.

Thank you, Gwen, for showing me how to make my journals truly unique.
