Journaling Challenge

So, you may have noticed in my last post that the word "leaf" is bold. Well, there is a reason of course ;) I am participating in a challenge on Scrapbooking Swede where there is a word posted by Angelique every week and we have to journal about that word in our blogs, diaries, etc. and use it as the starting point for the journaling on a layout. You just start writing about the word for five minutes and see what you get. It may be your whole block of journaling for that layout or just the inspiration. I don't really journal a lot on my layouts so this is a great challenge for me to do. So, if it seems like I have a case of verbal diarhea...bear with me...there is a reasonable explanation ;)
