Way of life

Hello again,

Blog post mark 2, not sure what happened but my screen flashed and it was gone. Is it any wonder I frequently opt to type up blog posts in a document and copy and paste it over? Joy from Joyfully Stamps is starting an art journal and is planning on sharing hers, I thought I might join her sharing mine.

I started a bullet style journal specifically to track my sleep or lack there of, my physio exercises and my design team work so I don't forget to get things done on time. I will not bore you with the rather bland sleep tracking, exercise etc pages but after deciding that it looked rather boring I am planning on using my journal for creative pages as well, using stamps, dies, techniques etc. that I want to try out  in my journal, some not so successfully done others I have been having fun doing. I am using an A5 art journal for my base and adding in other pages as the mood takes me.

This page is using up two spray ink backgrounds I have used elsewhere and these bits were taking up space on my desktop, a stamped sentiment from Darkroom Door, punched (yes I still have many of my punches and occasionally still use them) shapes and a little black ink doodling. The spray ink backgrounds have been torn along the edge of my steel ruler and have rough edges.

Journal page

What I used:-
scrap paper cut to just smaller than the journal page
spray ink background (dylusions spray inks)
darkroom door sentiment
scrap black card and text paper
clear embossing ink
white embossing powder
star and circle punches
black fine line pen

I would like to enter this page in:-

Megan

Love the colours Megan, am totally impressed that you have kept it up, I’ve tried heaps of times but diaries or whatever you chose to call them don’t maintain use more than a month if that! I do have lists just not journals or such.
LOVE the colours think they are great, easy to see too when you’ve out tit in a weird place! Very important l think!
Prayer hugs, Shaz in Oz.x
