I hope you've enjoyed the Stampotique blog hop; it's still open for another few days if you've not had chance to join in yet. I've continued to enjoy playing with the new stamps and this time decided to make a journal page.
One of France's new stamps says
so I decided to use this as a challenge for a page. I can't say I pushed myself out of my comfort zone with my colour choices, but I did by
- stamping the words and phrases 'cockeyed' rather than vertical or horizontal
- adding doodled marks
- using different inks which blotched and didn't blend in, and leaving them on the page rather than trying to blend them in
I wasn't sure about this page at first but it's growing on me ;) What would you do to move outside your comfort zone in the projects you make? I'd love to know.

What a gorgeous journal page spread, Sarah!! Love the colours, and that stamp from France is wonderful - what a great sentiment. Hope you enjoy Easter, pushing outside your comfort zone.
