With the hot and humid yuck of August fully upon us, I was feeling the need for something I little more Spring-like.

This journal is nearly full. If I can get 3 more entries to fit, I’ll be really surprised. Good thing I have another going and yet another book waiting in the wings.

Layer, layers and more layers for this journal page. I had an idea in mind when I started. What was in my head didn’t match in the least bit what was coming out on the page.

I walked away for a couple days…literally.

I really liked pieces of the pages so I took my circle stamp to those parts.  I filled in around with blue and white with my fingers. I’ve really got to remember to get a picture of my hands one of these days all covered with paint. But I digress…

Anyone remember the 1984 movie Footloose? Well, I certainly do. It’s still a favorite of mine.

This set of Bible verses was used in a scene by Ren McCormack, played by Kevin Bacon, as he was trying to convince the very conservative city council to allow the high school kids to have a dance. This scene amazed me to hear that the Bible said dancing was ok because I grew up in a very conservative church that dancing was not allowed either.  Its a beautiful and powerful set of verses.

I decided that the verse needed to be added after I looked at the pages. I thought that might be a view from heaven…the universe in front of you…all the stars and planets.
