Art Journey

On UK Scrappers this year there are a lot of new challenges and classes. I have been following the 'Art Journey' thread and have downloaded all the prompts so far. I have put together my own art journal following Sarah's brilliant instructions. You can see them on UKS and on Sarah's blog, therefore I will not go into detail here. You will see my book isn't quite up to Sarah's standard but I did have fun making it!

Here are a selection of the papers I started out with, the leatherette is from a charity shop find jacket that I shared with my good friend Kay.

I used matt medium on some of the book pages I wanted to use to give them some strength.

The first page is ready to go! Normally I add completed pages into my journal. However, this time I am being brave and painting/inking/spraying and generally getting messy onto the page straight into the my journal.

I have placed a sheet of acetate under the page as I work to protect the lower pages. I wonder how long I will worry about that. LOL

Here is my first completed page for this 6 month Art Journey.

Thanks for looking.
