Paw Prints..... for Bee Arty

 

Good morning how are you? I am here today to share a scrapbook layout for Bee Arty, yes I know a scrapbook layout it has been awhile. I suppose it’s the subject matter that inspired me, our boy Jax crossed the rainbow bridge in late August and to be honest it really has been one of the hardest puppy losses hence the lack of creating. 

So here is my layout sharing a little glimpse of our boy, the hole in my heart will never be filled…

Mindful

Hi how is everyone going? I here today to  share another one of the... well I suppose you can call it a series, using colouring sheet background and black and white stamped images.

I love this style of art journal because you really can play with the background and go nuts with your colours and stencils then ground it with your black and white images. 

And by adding a little black drop shadows you can blend the bright with the dark. 

If your interested in learning this style of art journal (Western Australian based) pop me a message on my facebook page here

Pondering

Good morning how are you? I am finding little bouts of creative ideas... I will spend a day stamping and fussy cutting then put it away for another day. The next day I might spend some time colouring in an object then cut it out and set it aside.

Then when I am ready to create then I have all my elements to finish a page in my journal. This is helpful when you have limited time or limited mojo.







Hope you find some creative time

Let your dreams .....

Hello how are you going? I am here to share with you a labour of love. This art journal page took a massive 9 plus hours to complete and to be honest I still want to go and fiddle with the 
page by adding on more pencil work and more hidden details. 

I love this art journal page and it evolved from making a pencil case,which is a gift, so rather than lose track of my work it was a great way to replicate the art work into my book.














Check out the amazing images to start the base of your page.

Till next time have a creative day

MIA.....

 Good morning how are you? Long time no speak lol ahhhh what can I say, life has been happening and with that the mojo stopped flowing.... A lot has happened that is for sure lets see if I can fill you in a little bit we started the  New year off with a new addition into the house with a new Golden Retriever puppy and let me say Maverick has kept us on our toes. We also have said goodbye to our beloved Jax, and we still continue to miss our big smiley Staffy Lab and its a hole that will never be filled. 

Our new house (3yrs old) need all the walls to be grinded out because of cracking and then repainted so that meant everything had to be moved out and lived with, let me tell you it wasnt very inspiring for the creative endeavours, but it did mean that my studio had an overhaul and a clean out and more organisation..... I am I the only one that finds if things are disorganised that I cant create?

So all the art mojo has been on holiday and I think it was a little bit of burnout, the joys of also being in my 40s means my brain has decided to go on hold and just motivation in general. 

So I am going to try and start the creative again and will be sharing some of my works, and they are a little bit different as I have started the Art Journal journey and just start to get back to playing with paints and colouring in hope to make some art works for my walls ( this is still a bit off I think).

So hopefully I will get to sharing and creating again more frequently. 

Todays share is from  a recent art journal  class that I have started running from home we gather once a month so if  your interested pm my  facebook page and I  will get in contact with you https://www.facebook.com/JustToObsessed/








Till next time have a creative day
