In today's journal entry I have gone for the theme "black". I didn't want to just use black paint or make an all black picture though, so the idea to use a heart came to mind as in a "black heart". I used lots of texture in the background of this entry from different papers …
In today's journal entry I have gone for the word shoe as my inspiration. I have used a quite muted palette of creams and browns which has allowed the red shoe to really stand out. Again I have used masking tape as texture for my image but I have stamped the word "Shoe" on it …
In today's journal entry I have gone for a magician theme. I had my eye on using this awesome sticker of a magician for a while, I love this vintage image, especially the lightning bolts exuding from his finger tips. I have made this a very simple journal page as I didn't want to cover …
In today's journal entry I have gone for a jewel theme. It was quite difficult to photograph as it is very shiny, glittery and reflective due to using glitter, metallic papers and plastic sheets. I have used wallpaper samples as background paper in this journal entry. Wall paper is brilliant for adding texture to your …
In today's journal entry I have gone for a slightly gothic theme. I have quite a few skull stickers and wanted to put one to good use in a project that wasn't Halloween related. I went for a monochrome effect with black and white papers, and added a dash of magenta to make it pop. …
I couldn't do an art journal page with the name mushroom moon designs without including a page with mushrooms in!

And here we are, about half way through January. Do you think we are going to make it through to the end of the challenge!? A page a day for the whole month of January 2022 sounded like an impossible task and yet here we are at the half way point! For the background I …
On today's art journal page I used some stickers from the "Bibliophilia Antiquarian sticker book" that I got for Christmas. In the background I used some papers from my "curiosity box" digital kit which you can purchase on Etsy HERE. The letters I cut out from various bits of scrap paper and I framed it …
For today's journal page entry I used a variety of maps and pages from an old West Midlands road atlas, plus some ink (Tim Holtz Distress ink) I then just used an old sentiment I found to create the title "Explore." Using old maps is a great way to create interesting texture and pattern in …
In today's miniature art journal page I used vintage stamps and photocopies from stamp collecting albums, vintage style letters, aged photographs and ink to create this vintage "post" inspired spread. I then scrawled all over the page with a ball point pen in my illegible handwriting!
