Weekly Journal Challenge Theme

My last art journal challenge theme was The Soundtrack of My Life. It took me 2 weeks to finish because it was so crazy at work. But now I have  some time off and  I can devote more time to my journal.  I listed many of the bands and kinds of music that have influenced my life.  I have enjoyed seeing most of these artists in concert.  Music has been such a great escape and stress reliever for me!
This week's theme is ... My Inspiration !  I read a wonderful book today called, "I'm Proud of You, My Friendship With Fred Rogers," b y Tim Madigan.  It chronicles the unlikely frienship a young reporter falls into with Mister Rogers.  Rogers becomes a  close friend and mentor to Madigan  and  both men influence each other's lives.  I thought this would be a great journal theme this week.  Who has inspired your life?  Who has supported you, believed in you, spurred you on in your journey?  Celebrate that inspiration in your journal this week!

Map of my heart and a new theme!!!


I did finish my journal page last night and here it is.  Did anyone else want to share the map of their heart?  For Valentine's Day my husband brought home a beautiful journal and pledged to 
write back and forth with me for the next year! He's a keeper, that one!  
For this week's theme I was influenced by our sudden dive into the world of Facebook! Lots of lists of favorites, funny name games and such are all over Facebook. I got tagged to write down the 25 most influential albums of my life. I had my hubby do it first because he has a brain like that.  So, this week's theme is The Soundtrack of Your LIFE. What music speaks to you personally? What song is YOUR SONG? What music brings back vivid memories of a time or place?  Do you play or write music? I can't wait to "hear" what you create in your journals.
