Hi everyone!
I haven't completely veered away from traditional scrapbooking, mini albums and tags... but I have ventured into a new love of art journaling. I am having so much fun and to create art in my journal is so liberating! It's not too far from creating mini albums, BUT... I feel more free to discover, create and play with art journaling. Mini albums tend to be more "scripted." I love to "wing it" on my art journal pages... and so far (lucky enough hehee!) the pages have come out pretty okay. :-) I wanted to share some of those pages with you all in this post. I have a few vids posted on
YouTube that showcase these pages, so I hope you check it out.
I also want to share that Paula over at "JournalArtista" on
YouTube has been a GREAT source of inspiration for me. Her work is AMAZING!! And her art journal tutorials are one of the best out there. I'm happy to call Paula one of my YouTube "besties." She is the sweetest friend ever and is so giving of her talent. So be sure to check out her
YouTube channel. You can also find her blog
HERE.
Thanks for stopping by everyone!
hugs!!
Arlene :-)
My very first completed art journal page below... I'm such a novice, but I'm having a blast!
I love working with different types of textures and layers. On this page I have a ton of stuff going on from watercolour crayons, acrylic paints, stamps, collages, etc.
Those who know me well know that I've been a Twilight fan since day 1. I thought I'd create a page of Twilight and New Moon to add to my Art journal because it's all about what I love! :-) I used a ton of layers on this page and experimented with a bunch of collaging and rub ons!
