Art journals again- my new addiction...






As I mentioned in a previous post, I had also started a journal at the Mixed Media course at Graphicus back in April. It didn't need much doing to it, and I have now been spurred on to finish it. Here it is, not all the pages photographed very well, particularly the darker ones, so this is just a selection. The thing with this one is, a lot of it is about texture and dimension, hard to capture in a 2D medium like photos!
And can ayone tell me why on earth these photos come out in a column like this? I'm sure I've got them to spread around a bit better before! Very frustrating ....

I was fascinated by your journal as it uses some of my favourite stamps and also that fantastic Ironworks Glimmer Screen. I love that screen but haven't dared use it yet for fear of being disappointed. Seeing this has strengthened my resolve as you have made it look so yummy.

Chris, these are just gorgeous! I love the back grounds as well - really will have to get to a Graphicus workshop if this is what results............

Wow! You have been more adventurous than me. Love these layouts - and did you do them all on Sunday?
How strange, I have done one with a vintage photo as well.
