for the last month or so I have been trying my hand at art journalling, I find I love the freedom of expression and can sit for hours just getting messy, I seem to be permentantly covered with ink and paint these days.
It's also great that lots of things in my craft room that hadn't seen the light of day for years are now being used again, oh the joys of fun flock and oil pastels!
I will no doubt be back to scrapping in the near future but for now I am really enjoying having a new direction and wanted to share some of my pages with you, hope you like them!
this is the cover, I used an old 7 gypsies notepad, a lot smaller than a traditional journal but I'd had this for a while without doing anything with it and thought I could start small and if I enjoyed it go on to larger projects later..
ooh I do love my gesso!!!
I've always loved this quote, the gorgeous little alphas are kaiserkraft, I also wanted to create a page that incorporated zentangle, another hobby I've recently started trying to get to grips with (but more on that one later!)
that's it for now, I'm off to go get messy again!!
Gorgeous - well done, think I'll stick to scrapping though :)x
ReplyDeleteI love it especially the cover of your little book
ReplyDeleteI would really love to do something like this myself but I always seem to be disappointed in my efforts when I try.
Love these Tracie. Can see why you spend hours doing them. Xx
