I don't believe I am a terribly well prepared person, but when I have a job to do I make lists...these range from what to pack for a weekend away,what to blog over the week, what to buy in the supermarket...to xmas lists,jobs to do in the house.....all manner of lists. I don't always use the lists, that is not the point...the making of the list is what counts. I find it calming and theraputic.
sorry this is late, I had umpteen things to do last week and then we were away for the weekend.
so firstly I coloured the background, both front and back with a little watercolour paint and a spritz of Dylusions ink.
Next I squished some pollyfilla.(.wall filler..spackle..) thru an alphabet stencil and dried it with a heat gun.
Then I swiped over the filler with some more dylusions ink, and once that was dry I rollered over it with white acrylic.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjUKqz1rCFSfAZtibLvXfIPiY5ENHfVobl1z8iPxEFyFnDHhnl9XNlrxi6deVYQdEEroAANHUjE-rQ6_EM827VwaS43INlCThEUwgR-yrdN7T3DeVtrR_MjAdTEcdLk_3wj3vFzoHXlme0/s320/IMAG0610.jpg)

Both back and front are the same, here you can see the detail of the wall filler, and how much texture it adds.
To the front I added some old written lists, that i retrieved from the bin.
Then added a cut up journalling tag, on which I wrote the title.
To the back I added another journalling tag, on which I wrote my method of listmaking
,plus a snippet of fabric.
