January 5: Inspiration Board Challenge

I was inspired by:
-the rectangular shapes on the mood board
-flower cluster
-the photo collage in the corner
-the font
-the quote
-watercolor paints
The quote "Never let your fear decide your future" really spoke to me. My daughter would love for me to create dresses based on vintage designs for her. I have let my fear of failure stop me. She has much more confidence in me than I do. I would love to explore Savannah and NYC but I need to overcome travel fears that I have to accomplish that too. Thanks for the challenge! Here is my page:
 
Oh my goodness, I ended up going deep with the journaling on this one - but it's good; it really made me reflect on the coming year.

Inspiration from mood board:

1. The color scheme
2. “Never let your fear decide your future”
3. “You can’t start the next chapter if you keep reading the last.”
4. “The things that excite you are not random. They are connected to your purpose. Follow them.”
5. “Follow your purpose.”

2) BYOC Colours
