My June page is finished...

...but it's actually for May. LOL!! I decided to pick a theme, and it ended up being the names of the moons for each month. May is the "Flower Moon", and I really wanted to do that one first, so I decided that each month I'll work on the month that just passed.

Confused? Me too! Here's a link to see the finished page if you'd like.

Raring to go

G'Day Everyone,
Don't know how often I'll be moved to write here but as I spent the weekend thinking of how I'd go about my Journal pages and sketching some ideas, thought it was high time I said G'day to all of you.
I've never done any bead embroidery so am a real newbie. As a Beader who makes jewelery I have heaps and heaps of beads, so when I read about this project I realised that this is what I must have been saving them for.
Oh yes a little about me :- I'm an Australian, live in Sydney and work the night shift - full time - I'm a Bar Tender at a large Sports Club. I've been working here for 3 and a half years and it was during this time I took up beading. Lots of the ladies, both staff and customers buy my jewelery, so have a little customer base there. Did I mention I love my job?!
I think that I'll go Postcard size, don't want to scare myself too much!
Going out this afternoon to get some material for June and also some for a bit of a practise.
So I'm raring to go on this journey with you all, my bags are packed and I have my ticket to ride!

My ideas :}

I'm arlee from Vancouver Island BC in Canada. I've considered myself a textile artist for some 40 odd years. Recently i've been mixing mediums so have decided to create a postcard sized journal, but with a twist. And being a floral designer in my "day job", i think my theme will probably be floral, but with mine own eccentric spin on them :}
Can't wait to see some photos here soon from everyone!
