Paint Splashes Art Journal Page

What better way to end my Sisterhood of the Traveling Art Journal than with paint splashes! This project was so much fun to be a part of, and I think I would do it again in the future.

This turned out so bright and fun and a perfect way to express my love of art. This is an easy page to create, and it would be cute as a card or a scrapbook page.

New Beginnings Art Journal Page

Hello Everyone!

Today we have a page for the Sisterhood of the Traveling Art Journal and this journal’s theme is New Beginnings.

I love this theme, and it reminded me of springtime and caterpillars turning into butterflies. 

This page is an update to the vintage pattern collage girls that I have done in the past. You can visit that blog post here:

It was a lot of fun to revisit this technique and improve upon the designs and add more detail. The traveling art journal is expanding my boundaries and helping me be more creative.

I hope you enjoyed this take in new beginnings. What makes you think of a new beginning and how would you journal it?

Sword in the Stone Art Journal Page

Hello Everyone!

I have another page for the Sisterhood of the Traveling Art Journal. This theme was a little harder for me, and really challenged me creatively, but in the end I think I found a creative way to approach this theme. 

 

So the theme of this journal is medieval gypsy. I am not sure exactly what that means so I just went with the medieval part, specifically the legend of the Sword in the Stone.

I love this story, and this page reflect this. I created a rock out of fabric, and the background is textured with tissue paper and colored with dylusions sprays.

The best part of this page is that the sword actually goes up and down! So much fun!

I am really loving how this Sisterhood program that I am in really helps me expand my boundaries and stretch my creativity. I can’t wait to see what next month will bring!

How to Create a Junk Journal

Hello Everyone!

Junk journals are all the over the internet right now! I have always loved junk journals and I want to show you how I create mine. 

I use my journals to try out new products or when I go on vacation I like to take my journal and fill it with all the goodies I find along the way like tickets and postcards.

These are so much to make with a vintage pattern. I add all kinds of emphrema and washi tape and bits and bobs from my studio.

For the binding I like to stitch the side, but you can use a long stapler if you want. I add a ribbon to keep it all together.

If you try it out let me know how it works for you.

Christmas Art Journal Page

Hello Everyone!

Christmas is almost here! Whew I do not know where the year went!! Now is the time to start my Christmas Art journal pages. 

This page was a lot of fun. I started with a page out of a children’s book as my focal point and built the page from there

I love creating pages like this, it is all about layering. Start with the flatter layers and get bulkier as you build. The layers and textures create interest and makes the page fun to look at.

Fun Art Journal Page with an Ostrich in a Suit!

Hello Everyone!

I am still on an art journal kick, lol. I love that I can finish a page relativity quickly and I can practice new techniques and try out new mediums.  This page was especially fun! I found this old pic of a woman and an ostrich in a suit. I laughed when I saw it. I am not exactly sure what is going on but I knew I had to make a page around this pic.

I got this picture in a pack of papers and random items from Who Gives a Scrap. There was a ton of really cool items in the pack, including this picture. The woman does not look too happy, but the ostrich looks happy enough. I just love it, lol. I figured it might be in Paris, so that is why I added some French elements.

I wanted to keep the journal a bit more neutral than I usually do, lol. So I kept with brown and teal and some neutrals. I also like to play with different textures, so I added paper, washi tape, metal, some cork, and a lacy stencil. All the various textures go together to make a fun, interesting page.

And on this page I used Lindy’s Sprays. This is a relatively new product to me, and I am in love. The sprays are perfect for adding the right amount to color and there are a ton of ways to add the color. I love exploring new mediums and adding new elements to my art.

Now I am excited to rummage through the rest of the papers and elements i picked up to see what other goodies are there!
