Journal pages

I've had lots of fun creating these pages - there's only a few more pages left in my journal now - I've really enjoyed the process of learning whilst I went along

Journal Page

yet another page this time I depicted some of the things I love - trees - water - stone and wood

Journal Covers

I just love the way these have turned out. I had a hessian bag that some posh wine came in as a prezzie ages ago and I knew if I kept it I would find a use for it !!!! Well last night I sat and picked all the stitching out and Viola !!! covers for my journal were made. I added some inks to deepen the colour - the lettering and keys are Tim Holtz grunge paper - inked with dabbers. The corners are cork. The whole thing is very touchy feely !!!

Another 2 pages that I've really enjoyed completing I've used lots of bits and pieces and techniques including cutting an aperture out on the 2nd one.

Journal page - tags

i again used acrylics to colour wash my pages after I had sewn a few together - I folded pages to make pockets and again stitched them. I made my tags to fit in the pockets and one to put on the page I then added my lettering and a couple of images and embellishments.

My journal is coming along a treat now and I'm loving doing it

Journal Page

for this page I colour washed the background with 3 washes of acrylics. I then added some torn paper to both sides - added my images and then did a bit of journalling which I highlighted with white gel pen. I used mica powder in my last wash but it doesn't show very well on the pic.

This is another journal that I've started - I got the inspiration from Dyans blog at Art from the Heart. I intend to just learn as i go along
