Page one: First I took white spray mist to highlight the page a litte bit. These flowers were first embossed and then I painted them with watercolors. Before I glued them to my page I cut it down into 5 pieces and used my sewing machine to sew a line on the left. On the top right I glued down some leftover sewing thread.

Page two: I painted the inside of my hand with white acrylic paint and made an imprint onto cardstock. With a pen I wrote around the words this is me.

get messy - an art journal challenge 15

Create Share Love | GetMessy1

When I joined get messy a few months ago, I made a 8x8 minibook. The idea was to create a page and add it to the album. The quotes minibook I used in the last few weeks is way smaller and the pages are already adhered. So I decided to go back to the original minibook. For the cover and back I covered chipboard with patterned paper.

Page one: I used Neocolors II, water, gouache and gel medium. This is the first page of my new album. I think it represents the whole idea very well.

Page two: I'm currently sewing a new quilt. With some leftover fabric I created a miniquilt and wrote around it.

Left page: I got inspired by Vanessa for this page. I used some gouache paint in black and an old brush to create those crosses.

Right page: Here I used a leftover page from my Linoleum Print.

I like the contrast between these two.

Create Share Love | Quotes 6

Left side: I worked again with the autumn art journal kit by Katie Licht. This time I didn't use a quote from some one else. I wrote some thoughts I had about moving faster.

Right side: A simple page with stripes and an older Studio Calico Project Life Card on top. This quote is a pretty awesome one and I truly believe in it.

Create Share Love | Prompt

This month's prompt is brought to you by Sabine of Moments to live for.

Journaling Challenge: Live your adventurous dreams on paper. What would you love to do, or at least try, if you had the courage to live more adventurously?

Art Challenge: Try a method or material you've never worked with before. Be adventurous!

For this prompt I only used the Journaling Challenge. I couldn't think of a material I've never worked with before and being adventurous isn't one of my main characteristics.

 

Create Share Love | Quotes 5

Left side: I used another quote of The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin. I created some sort of colored background with these Neocolors II and wrote the quote on my computer first and printed it afterwards.

Right side: For the background I used some old book pages from this kit by Katie Licht and on top I added a card from an older Studio Calico Project Life kit.
