Cardboard Junk Journal Layout

Dear Friends,

Creating  Mixed Media journal pages are something I have started to indulge in of late.

But, my heart gives a leap when I think of using beautiful pattern papers or canvas boards to start with. frequent blog hopping brought to fore Cardboard as substrate. I have a huge collection of cardboard pieces, thanks to the online shopping gala!

These cardboard ended up being a junk journal - a place to experiment my creativity!

The method is the same always. Prepare the page by applying Gesso. Play along with colours - I chose Pink and yellow. Apply texture paste through stencil. Few stamping and embellish it .

A few close up of the pages.

Thanks for stopping by

Journal Page "Enjoy"

Layouts are fun to make and there is no dearth of inspirations around . There are a few crafters of my  personal choice whom I follow religiously. One among them is Martha .

Enjoy the Little Things in Life

Someone rightly said "Enjoy the little things in life because one day you would look back and realize they were the big things".  We would have lost many of those "little things" already however, now on, We need enjoy those moments when life gives us !! I have kept this in my mind when making this Journal page - that inspired me to keep the little butterflies which were etched into my mind from my childhood village memories.

In this project, have used images from old magazines, cut into circles and have used water soluble pastels to provide a smudged look to gel into the background.
