Art Journal Video

Sitting in my studio today with a pile of "beautiful papers" threw me further down the hole. I'd been feeling a bit blocked anyway and that nearly did me in. I'm gonna take a page from this YouTube video from Eveline UK. She is using a binder to hold sheets of cardboard on which she journals; "non-precious" and budget-friendly. {Yes, that was an intentional pun back there. Did you find it yet?}

I'm gonna go back to the studio tomorrow and tear and rip and find "stuff" to sew down into collages. I'm gonna make one for each of my family members for Christmas (don't tell) and I'm gonna make one extra one as a giveaway for one of you.

In the meantime, go enjoy Eveline UK's video. Don't forget to rate and leave a comment for her. It's the best way to say thank you.

thanks for sharing the video Diana....loved watching her go through her journal - gave me some ideas. Just like you I have been feeling rather blocked lately - can't seem to find my mojo!

Oohhh thank you so much for sharing my video! Funny enough I just posted your link in a reply to a Dutch blog from someone who just ordered your book, without even checking here first to see you actually have my video on your blog. *blush* Thank you!!
