Journal Day Five

I did this entry at 7:30 am. My dog woke me up at 5:30 and I could not get back to sleep so I got up and did my journal entry. I was hoping to get this posted earlier but I am working in slow motion so it has taken me all day.

- Day Five

I had so much fun doing these last 5 days of journaling and looking forward to doing more

Journal Day Four

I finished this journal entry before 12:00pm which was on time.

- Day Four

I had a lot of fun doing this entry using watercolour paint and Sharpie Poster Paints I loved doodling I think I look good!!

What to do with this Snow

Echo my dog is having trouble getting in and out of the house with all the snow we have gotten over the last week. She is getting a work out just going out to pee.

Echo trying to decide how to get back into house

Emily is my one of my cats and she always trying to get out even though she has been a house cat for her 14 years. If the door is open she tries to get out except now...........

I do not think she will make a run for it today with all this snow

Tigger my other 14 year cat didn't even bother.

No way Mom am I going near that door

Journal Day Three

Didn't get a chance to get my journaling done till 11:30pm so didn't get  to post it.

My excuse is.... Gary went away yesterday and I needed to work on the faux leather journals. Truly there is no excuse. So starting today I am going to try and get my Journaling  done by 12 midday.

- Day Three

On this entry I added a picture of me and used American Crafts Fabric Thickers for the date. Used my Neocolor ll Watersoluble Crayons to decorate me and coloured the background of my picture .

Journal Day Two

Day Two of my Art Journal is done and much earlier than yesterday.
In this online class Julie gives ideas as to other products you can use. I am really enjoying this freedom of doing what I want because as anyone who knows me this is what I love to do.

- Day Two

On todays journal entry I finally used my Save the Date gel-a-tins for todays date. I added my version of a clock in the empty space using Copic Markers and on the other page I stamped with a Script Stamp  and Gold Stazon Ink.

Journal Day One

 I am following Julie Fei Fan Balzer 30 Days In Your Journal.  It looks like it will be fun!
  
I have got Day One done a few minutes late but I got it done. I painted the two pages with Watercolour Paints and left a clear area where I plan to put something  but not sure yet, will decide tomorrow. Using a Black PITT Pen I wrote the date and my journaling for the day. 

Day One

Busy day today snow-blowing. Hey, it was exhausting my legs are aching and I am tired but it made me feel good!

Snow-Blowing

Here I am after an hour and half of snow-blowing.

Art Journaling Here I Come!!!

I plan to start art journaling tomorrow and do one double page everyday.

So I got everything I need to start my art journaling but had difficulty finding a watercolour journal I like, so I made one.

- my journal

I found watercolour paper 12 inches x 18 inches and I only had to cut it once. I scored the paper at 8.5 inches, 9 inches and 9.5 inches and folded it.

- folded watercolour paper

To make this book I stitched 15 folded pages together and using Scor-Tape and Sticky-Back Canvas I made a binding.

- Journal stitched 

-Journal bound

I added chipboard for the cover and attached using sticky-back canvas am now ready to go so hopefully I will have  my first entry done tomorrow.
