T Stands for.............

.......TV Doodling

Last night I decided I was going to decorate the cover of my Anti Journal. I did it whilst watching TV and catching up with Downton Abbey. The programme was gripping and the doodling was very relaxing; I am pleased with the result.


I used Sharpie pens,
and drank some Lady Grey tea. I am sharing this post with the lovely Tea group over on Elizabeth's blog. If you pop over there you could blog hop to see what everyone's been up to, and maybe join in too.

The front.
The arrow, bottom right, said 'Start Creating Here'. I wrote over it so it says 'Mo Woz Here'. It's not very clear, but I know it's there :)

The Back

Thanks very much for popping in for a look. I appreciate your visit and any comments you leave are most welcome!

Ta Ta For Now

    1. Thanks so much Robyn. Lady Grey has citrus flavours. But ever so subtle. Delicious.

  2. You definitely made this anti-journal your own. I think it's brilliant. Your tea and Sharpies really made me smile. Beautiful colors, including the tea.

    Yes, please ask Wee Man to share his tea set with us next week. It would be fun to add him to our T group, too.

    Thanks for sharing the journal cover and tea with us this not quite Tuesday.

  5. I love both lady grey and earl grey tea. I cannot doodle to save my life, I think its because I am OCD and everything will have to be perfect so I could not watch tv as well. Love your doodling

  6. I confess I had to open my English-Portuguese dictionary to understand what twaddle was and I am glad I've learnt another word in English. Love your anti-journal page!It's sweet!I don't Lady Grey tea but it must be wonderful. Here we drink coffee more than tea but we love both.

    1. Thank you Linda. Yes, Downton is very addictive. We've only been watching for a couple of weeks, but are on Season three already, lol. We will soon catch up with everyone else and then be desperate for the next episode! :o))

  17. I just love the idea of an "anti-journal". It sounds like it might be a good starting place for someone who hasn't done any creative art work for a long time.
