The most wonderful quote I found from none other than the cowboy of cowboys—John Wayne—inspired these journal pages…

Pages painted in turqouises and browns seemed just the thing for these Wild West women…

“Courage is being scared to death and saddling up anyway”…perfect, isn’t it?!

Both pages together…a couple of my very favorite ones.

  7. Beautiful pages as always,Julie. Back then, one certainly needed courage to saddle up and head into the unknown. That is something we must all do from time to time. Best wishes to you, Tammy
