I wanted to share a recent art journal page with you. Another way I am using up lots of scraps of paper, trying my hand at lettering, and using up the IN THE VAN faces series. They are slowly making their way to this book, a simple Pro Art sketch book found on sale at Michael's some time ago.
I went through the book and glued two pages together to give it more strength and then started "throwing" down back ground pages, figuring I'd come back to the journaling part later. I think that's the hardest part for me - putting the writing, lettering, or words on to a page. It's not like I don't know what to say, because I have something to say, it's getting it on to the page without messing up the art that slows me down. It's that inner critic that moves to the front and says,"Ok. Try not mess it up now."
And here's a few more ICADS because we're only a few days from the end of the month.

I love all the pieces to make up the "Clue" IC. The "destination" card is cool, too -- how did you do that?
ReplyDeleteI found your link on Glue it Tuesday. I too have trouble with journaling. I worry about what to say, who will read my thoughts, misspelling, etc. I just completed an e course by Kelly Kilmer and I truly struggled with the journaling. While the book is complete, there are pages left without any journaling and I am okay with that.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing.
I like your “Be Daring” ICAD! ♥♥♥ Not only the art but the sentiment.
