Pocket Scrapping Meets Art Journaling: In Review

Hey everyone, it’s Sarah here. I’ve had so much fun sharing my Pocket Scrapping Art Journaling Project with everyone this summer. I thought it would be fun to do a recap of the challenges we’ve done so far and for me to share a few of the projects that the members of The Lilypad Community have created. Even though these challenges are no longer eligible for the prizes, I’m leaving each thread open so that anyone that wants to can share their art if they choose to complete a challenge.

My first challenge was to scrap a personal goal.

Then I challenged everyone to create a page using only premade journaling cards with no extra embellishments.

I hope y’all have enjoyed perusing of these creations as much as I have. I love seeing everyone’s different takes on the same challenge. Make sure to check the Art Journaling Pad for new challenges including one that will be posted later today (8/17/2014). I can’t wait to share it with you!

I’m a creative who pulls inspiration from all corners of life—both the joyful highs and the real-life moments that punch you in the gut. Honestly, I don’t think I can pin down a single scrapbooking style for myself, so let’s just go with eclectic. My layouts really depend on my mindset. If I’m in a deep, cerebral mood, you’ll likely see something chaotic and messy. If I’m more relaxed, it tends to come out clean, simple, and structured.

My brain is usually running on several channels at once, so it’s completely normal for me to be working on a digital layout, dabbling in a hybrid project, and getting messy with art journaling or mixed media—all at the same time.

Here are a few of my go-to tools: Digital: Adobe Photoshop CC + my MacBook; Photos: Canon Rebel or iPhone; Hybrid: Cricut Joy + sewing machine; Art Journaling: watercolors, stencils, and artsticks

And when it comes to embellishments—digital or physical—I’m always reaching for messy threads, ribbons, and Polaroids. Always the Polaroids.
