Welcome to the Art Journaling Monthly Muse! Muse: verb: to reflect deeply on something noun: the source of artistic inspiration Well Hello again! I have had a very exciting and full weekend (its my birthday so we have been celebrating), so I am a bit behind on this week's post, but I wanted to go ahead and get the quotes to you. This week I decided to go a bit more cheeky and collect quotes surrounding crafting - but really I was thinking anything that involved the creative process, which includes writing, drawing, painting, music - anything that creates something and brings joy to the soul of both the maker and the beholder. (Does that make sense?) So while looking for quotes that inspire this week, feel free to take whatever creative direction most touches your heart. Here is our Quote Board for the week and here is my page - using one of these quotes NOTE: Available still are the template set from Scrapping with Liz if you decide to go the "Skinny" route, but of course you don't have to you could make a full page. If you do decide to go for the Skinnies but haven't got the template from last month, you can find the templates available HERE. In addition Christa created one cool triangle template that you could use (Christa's awesome template is HERE). Once you are ready to share your page make sure you added to the Art Journaling Gallery HERE and then post it in this thread. To do so, copy the 3rd link on the right hand side of your LO, the one that reads : Share BB Code: and just paste the copied link into your text in the post DO NOT use any icons, no need to click on anything, just copy on the link, then paste it here in your text! We will draw a winner at the beginning of next month, even more incentives for your inspiration! You can use any products in The Lilypad store, make sure you follow our gallery guidelines. GALLERY RULES: Layouts must contain at least 50% TLP products. (Templates count as 15%.) Uploads must be less than 250k. List all credits; no off-site linking allowed. Pages are due last day of the month. If you have any questions at all, feel free to ask!!!
I don't like this, but am posting anyway because I want to finish the month. I felt strangely uninspired this week - all the more odd as the topic is creativity and I loved all the quotes. Not re-doing it though, once it's done, it's done.
Awesome guys! Sorry I a have been MIA - this week got a bit crazy over here! But I love knowing I can pop in and see all kinds of fun going on. And @Rikki I totally get you on that! I have those days (weeks/months) so no worries, I think you did fabulous!
It was really hard to choose a quote! But I finally made this one - because well, it has been that kind of week
This particular quote ring extremely true for me - crafting helps me wind down and relax after a day at work!!
