Book of Days Week 11  with Effy Wild  Art Journal Pages Two weeks ago, someone stole my art journal that I was using for this year.  It was hand bound and all of my work since January was in it.  Sad was I.  However, I am moving on and am using my favorite pre-made art journal by Dylusions.  I like the bigger one but it is hard to scan and post... I am not really tech savvy LOL.  Here is my spread for BOD week 11-

A few days ago, my friend Robin Redd of ReddRobinStudios, who is also on the design team for Art Anthology, sent me some of her discontinued paint samples to play around with. I knew what I wanted to use them on.......  The Four Flowers http://www.artanthologyinc.com/ http://robinredd.typepad.com/reddrobinstudios/   Here are two of the flower paintings AFTER: Here are two of the flower paintings BEFORE:

This week we got TWO bonus lessons in our Life Book 2015 group!  Yippee!!!  This one was from Violette Clark  http://www.violette.ca/   She created a little version of her own cottage on paper and added little paper notes that meant something special to her to the rooftop.  In my version, I added lots more texture and layers and a house that opens up to have a large space in which to journal.  This was a quick and fun little art journal page to brighten up your day :-)
