The newest lesson of my "mixed emotions" art journaling workshop is about JOY, and in addition, we learned a new paper weaving technique! I journaled around my page about the joy I felt when I went to see "Spamalot" at the State Theatre in Easton, PA, this past weekend. I not only got to spend time with my sisters, but I got to laugh throughout the very funny show. I used my favorite song as my title.
