Jan. 18: Art Journal (Style Challenge)

I decided to go with a bookmark. It actually came together quickly and was more fun than I thought it would be. My face is an angel flair that I duplicated twice with each version a bit different. Other elements came from 3 different designers which is not my "normal." In case it is not obvious, the stitching is the leaves and hearts on the top - they are a stitched element. This was a good out-of-the-box challenge.

This really is a challenge! it's something I've never done before, but I'm very excited to start!
 
Can we use a full body art doll, such as in the M3 Sept 14 kit, or does it just have to be a head. If it is just a head, can we use a profile of a head or does it have to be a frontal view? Thanks.
 
I only ever do AJ if required to in a challenge, but I always love it - so thank you :)
 
You can do it.. just dump the required parts on and confuse it and you got Art Journal
I can remember you not liking AN. Your comment made me laugh. Right now mine looks like some dumped on there two or three times.
 
Hi Lilí!!! Quick question - #1 of requirements is really an OR question - that you want us to use paint OR splatter OR gesso OR stamps, right ?

Yes you can use a full body art doll as long it has a face.. :) . I will accept a profile of a head..
 
I feel kinda dumb...what is Gesso?

It's like white paint that adds texture to a page. It's not a dumb question!! Not everyone know what it is...
