Another Junque Journal

This a smaller size - around 6" x 6" ... the cover is woven fabric strips that have been stamped and foiled and then covered with organza and free machines (adapted from a class by Angie Hughes) ... I'm only showing a few pages this time you will be pleased to know ...

Art Quilt

I have been trying a few new techniques and this art quilt incorporates a laminating technique from Mixed Media New Studio Techniques by Maggie Grey and Isobel Hall. I enjoyed making it but need to try again to make a better job of it ...

Art Journal daily pages

I am not a very consistent blogger! - its not the blogging as such - it is getting round to taking the photographs that I have trouble with. I have been trying to art journal every day however and here are 2 weeks worth in one go. Some are better than others...

Daily Journaling

Have managed so far ... but back at work today after 10 days off so will see how this evening progresses .. anyway here are pages for 1st and 2nd January ...



The second one is a page from yet another stitched junk journal via Mary Ann Moss's fabulous online class. I won't bore you with even more photos of these ... but I am strangely addicted to making them. Pages from these books are great for days when I don't want to paint, draw, stamp etc and for when I want to add photos, ephemera etc etc. If you are a paper hoarder and want a good way to get rid of some of it check this class out.

Journaling

I thought I would try a few journal challenges this year. Last year I followed The Kathryn Wheel blog and enjoyed the calendar pages produced so thought I might give it a try this year. My January page is completed ...


... and ready to be journalled on - we will see how it goes.

New Year

Well Christmas and New Year are done once more and I have managed a bit of crafting over the last two weeks. A ROD journal made for a friends Christmas present (I am obsessed with making these little sewn journals) and the bag got finished!
