Welcome to a flip through of my latest travel diary. It is part travelogue about my recent visit to France and part chock-a-block with ideas that you can use in your own illustrated journal work.

I have an online course The Book of You: Making and Keeping an Illustrated Journal if you want to find out more about adding easy, no-fail drawings, found paper collage, lettering, blocking layouts, and much more, check out the link here:
