Two posts in one day. Crazy. But I have been busy having fun! Michelle Ward creates an art journaling challenge every month. I missed last months, couldn't let that happen again.
Welcome to my Strip Ease:
I haven't had a chance to journal on it yet, but I am thinking about taking a white out tape dispenser and making some white vertical lines (to follow the tear lines) and then journal on the white line. We shall see...
I'm off to play!

Rhoda - welcome to the team! Thanks for coming to play. LOVE your pages. Great colors and patterns. I like the spread AS IS. Your idea of the white torn lines sounds cool - with big fat black sharpie journaling to play off the black that is already there.
ReplyDeleteYou mentioned in your comment that the grid challenge hooked you - don't let the past deadline stop you from trying it. I add links to old challenges all the time.
Oooh, you have some great papers in this. I think it'll be real fun laying down some journaling strips and then doing the writing. I scrapbook, and think I recognise some of those papers. The back one with text looks a bit like 7gypsies maybe?
ReplyDeleteMichelle-that is great to know. I will finish up my grid idea and leave a link :) Thank you for the wonderful inspiration. It's so much fun to play and share!
ReplyDeleteCathsheard-I think it might be 7Gypsies. I'm not in my room, so I can't check it, but I usually tend to pick up a number of their papers. Love their style. I've scrapbooked for over 10 years now and I always think it is funny when I see a paper I know on someone else's work. Stay tuned for my grid piece...lots more papers!!
Hmmm, white tape on tears? Could be interesting, I love seeing the changing as we think and plan our art and let it grow. I also really like it this way--tearing is a wonderful way to let loose of control, isn't it?
ReplyDeletecool! I like the colors and all the edges. I think this will look great with journaling on top of it!
ReplyDeleteLove the spread as is and think the white-out idea is most cunning!
