Art Journal

My fabulous friend Sandy has sent me a art journal.   Sandy keeps encouraging me to use it, she sends me links and ideas for it so finally I tried it out.  My mind was blank but then there is alot going on in my home, illness, injury a grandson staying, accounting duties and a broken tooth, so my mind is blank. {We are all fine, nothing serious, just one thing after another, you know how it goes.}

My first 2 pages I had my son paint the background any way he wanted and then I put on some favorite maggies that I colored but didn't like them on a card.  I wrote some personal things about the start of my blogging and who were my first mentors that I followed.

The second set of pages I used a image I colored a year ago and tore paper just for fun.

Here are the 2 pages together

My last page is a new Tilda and my new heart dies from Papertrey Ink that I had left over.  After painting the background with Golden paint, I modge podged them all on.

While I was chit chatting with my sick kids at the table, I drew little doodles all over.  A memory when I look at this page.

 Here is the gorgeous red (one of my favorite colors) leather journal Sandy sent me.  It is so pretty to use. lol  I will be able to create whatever personal things I want, you may never see the really bad artwork from here!  hehe  I do love the idea of writing in it as a creative journey.

Well thank you my friend for getting me into another medium, and No I am not doing the dictionary! hehehe  I just don't have time silly girl.  But I love your ideas.

I am entering the following challenges::
Tilda's Town anything goes
Marvelous Magnolia Challenge 13 Hearts

Have a great day and create freely everyone!
