    I couldn’t decide which leap was better. I hope you like at least one of them.

    Hi Melanie…and everyone!
    Thank you for the delicious prompt! Love the new look of the site!

    As synchronicity would have it, I just made a SoulCollage card this week to honor my “inner-journaler”. It fits the inspiration for the journal-artcalendar prompt; as well as the “create” prompmt. I’m Leaping with Joy into a nurturing companionship with my inner-journaler. She’s the angel on my shoulder to journaling.
