Reflections on Me

-

 I started a new journal to document how my looks have changed over the last 20ish years. Over that time I would occasionally take a photo of myself. Most often it was to document a good hair day! I’ve never really used those photos in my scrapbooking, so I thought it be would fun to see how I’ve changed over the years.


I used some older 49 & Market paper from my stash for the base page. I cut it using the Journal File XL1 page die from ECD. My picture is cut using the Labels, Tags & More set as well as the mat for the photo. 


I stamped the background with CS343 Script from the Past and the other stamps are all from CS295 Journal Your Life (so fitting). 


I am using the Square XL journal in Royal Blue and I embossed it using a folder from my stash. Then I rubbed some silver wax over it to highlight the details.


I love the quatrefoil pattern since that is part of my brand imaging!


I do plan to add some kind of title to the front of the journal, but that is a project for another day.

Journal Together 2024 February Prompt

Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing a little Art Journal page that I made for the Elizabeth Crafts, Journal Together 2024 February prompt.   The prompt this month (February) is WOODGRAIN.   I created this page using papers from the Grungy Wood collection. All of the dies and stamps are from the new Art Journal Elements collection by Devid Roodenburg. I had some Liquid Acrylics from Finnabair in my stash which I used for the first time to add splatters and  to create the drips on the paper I cut the base using the die from the 2111 Labels, Tags & More set and scored it to fit into my Cork Art Journal. After cutting one end of the page with the floral border die, I created the pocket and added the floral border stamp on top. This pocket holds a simple ATC which can be for journaling or maybe a picture. I added transparent matt texture paste to the cover using the crackle stencil from the new collection. Then I ran some blue ink over the page with my blending brush ...
