Happy Mothers Day Everyone! *Wink just kidding! Good Luck to all the students, teachers and staff returning to school today and for those who's first day of school it is! Last week Bri and I sat down to do a mixed media project together. She is such a great artist and she wanted to try this. We haven't been able to spend much time together over the summer because she has been busy working all the time! She was challenged at first about the "covering things up" part of the process, but I told her to trust the process and in the end she did an amazing job! I am proud of what a great artist she is. It was a great day and we had lots of fun and I can't wait to do another project with her soon!
Thanks Betty Ann S & Bonnie N for introducing me to the wonderful world of “Junk Journaling”. It takes both my passion for paper crafting and mixed media and slams them both together. A while back these wonderful ladies came into the store and asked if I have ever heard of it. Of course I was curious right away …. They brought some of their beautiful samples in and I was instantly in love. There are NO RULES! to how one makes a junk journal! You can use whatever paper crosses your path in daily life (literally junk you would throw out normally) and bind them together however your heart desires into a junk journal. When you “research” them on You Tube, Pinterest, etc. some fellow crafters use magazine pages, envelopes, grid paper, junk mail, regular copy paper, whatever inspires you. You can tea/coffee stain them to make the paper vintage or just leave them the way they are. Use just bits and pieces of articles or patterned paper….WHATEVER!! Then you can use these journals as a scrap book, writing or art journal, or just fill them with whatever your heart desires!! There are also many videos, pins, posts and blogs that can help you assemble them together or great ideas on pockets, flaps, or what inspired them.
I of course wanted to make one that I can fill with photos, stories and quotes that inspire me or things I love. I always over embellish (no such thing in my world as too much… ha ha ha,) but if you choose to make one, you don’t necessarily have to create one like mine. You can make it simple or as embellished as you wish! Paper angel studios is offering TAX FREE SHOPPING for all of CHERRYFEST and here is a list of events of what is going on at cherryfest!
