Inside My Journal

The Sun is Shining...

The weather is sweet..!

(Mixed media collage on canvas)

I'm so happy for how it looks hanging on my wall :)

This and that in february

Journal page from yesterday. I started drawing the girl with pencil, I then used my Neocolor watersoluble crayons

The purple background is acrylic paint

and I added a little writing, a few collage elements

and glitter...

My journal that I started in May 2008 looks like this from the side right now.

This is the very last page in this journal (Work in Progress, started today)

I've made marbled paper too.

and my mom talked me into starting knitting these socks. Nice colors for spring!

and I've decorated an envelope (collage style) for the first time

You should try it too, it is great fun! :D

How to stop the days from running...?

They are just passing by so fast, I almost have trouble keeping up.

It is time for a blog update; that's for sure!!

and really...; I need to put my mind on something else right now. Something that is not about school (and writing my Master thesis); and something to take thoughts away from stress and problem and making big decisions and stuff... To let it rest.

The following pictures were taken some time ago.

I feel like it is time to share them with you!

This is from last Saturday, spending some time with Kali and her kitties and a bottle of wine

This is Luna and Gizmo (?)... Aren't they the CUTEST?

and this is Tequila Sunrise (Tequila for short)... She is such a cool cat...

Gizmo again... The strangest and most beautiful little kittie EVER!!

and Lille (little) below...

Shakin` hands

Luna and Gizmo again...

enough kitty love.....

Time for January Journal pages...!!

my second collage on canvas

this one is with buttons.

I copied and printed 2 journal pages (from last year), ripped and glued; and added a bit of ephemera. And voila!!

Kind of cute, isn't it?

I am reading this book now. It is the best book I've read in a very long time; and I don't want it to stop, even thought it is a bit sad.

and this is my diary for 2009. it has one page for every day; lots of writing space

I love this

...for a crafty weekend!

My desk today.This Art Journal below was started in May 2008...

I love how big it's getting

Who needs to buy scrapbook papers, when you can print your dress!!

Have you tried yet?

I've started my next Journal already (even though the other one is not finished yet)

I'm altering a book this time.

This is one of the first pages(below)

I think it reflexts how messy my life has been the last few days, my thoughts are everywhere at the same time, making me feel very very tired.

The rest of this month, I will try to focus more on what is important for me.

I have books to get back to, a master thesis to finish, and my job.

But I'll have fun too!!

You know you should :)

My top 10 journal pages from 2008

so... which one is your favourite?

Do you want to show me your art journal?

I am still journaling now, and it is 2009. This year is tree days old; I am enjoying it, I have enjoyed every minute.

And I hope you do too!!

Happy New Year!!
