Lots of Journal Pages!

I have finally uploaded my Art Journal pages from last July to the present. I actually have 4 journals all together now:

1: My composition book art journal
2: a new journal made from cardboard pieces, a little more creative, idea from Ingrid Dijkers
3: my reading journal
4: my Moleskine journal for drawings and watercolours

I don't know if I can keep up with all these journals, it seems like a lot to me! So far, my reading journal is the one that suffers the most. I have to play some catch-up with that one!

So here are the few pages from my Ingrid Dijkers inspired journal. It's the journal itself that inspired me, although I LOVE her style:














Here are the pages from my Composition Journal:










A very selfish post for Christmas - I just got so many wonderful Art Supplies for Christmas!!

Journal Pages

I haven't posted journal pages for awhile, and these ones are different from my usual. I enjoy drawing and sketching, so i have a moleskine that I draw in. I picked it up in 2007, drew 3 pages, then dropped it for some reason. Well I've begun again, and joined the yahoo Group Everyday Matters, which gives weekly prompts. I did a few pages, then did the prompt for this week, which was to draw in they style of a famous artist or style of art. I chose Gustav Klimt. So here are my pages since I picked the journal up again on the 7th of February:

Happy Valentines Day!

A day late, I know, I've been so busy and so exhausted! Here is my card for dear hubby, he loved it!

The image is from altered pages.

We had a nice romantic dinner-scampi, salmon, spinach, tomato salad, and a Chocolate Torte for dessert. Yum!!

My mother's birthday was on the 12th of February, and here is her card:

Her card's images are also from Altered Pages, and in fact, is part of a kit I made for Altered Pages. You can go to the website and order the kit if you like! My daughter's Valentine's card is also part of the kit:


Hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day!
