January 11: Art Journaling-What's on the INside!?!

I was tempted just to journal within the shape and add a background paper, but then I finally got into the swing of this and added more. Still, while I am impressed with the art journal layouts, I find them so difficult and time consuming! Phew, glad it's done!

 

This is definitely not my style but I have to admit that it was therapeutic to scrap about the craziness that is my life right now. Thanks for the challenge!

 

This was fun!

 

Art journaling is NOT my thing - at all - as you can see. So this was a REAL challenge for me. LOL
Here's mine:

 

so this isn't quite where i thought the half formed idea in my head would take me but that's how AJ works sometimes, right?!
anyhow, if i had to title this, it'd be 'why i think i keep losing my keys' - you could substitute most things for the word 'keys' - lot of distraction, lots of unfinished trains of thoug..., the need to laser focus through the proverbial fog to find the missing pieces, and yes i added birds and a heart with wings (in the vein of that fur parents saying that they have 'paw prints on their heart') and glitter, i think all creative people bleed glitter & paint a little.



woo! done!

 

Thanks for the challenge, out of my comfort zone by far...

I'm too much of a minimalist scrapper to fill every bit of the space, but hopefully this works!

 

Thanks for this challenge! It always stretches me further than I expecting to go...
