Art Journal #1: Inner cover pages

I took out my art journal again and painted the inner cover pages at the front of the book. 

I had no plan for these pages.

I just picked colors and a few matching papers and started painting.

I had a lot of fun making this.

It was very relaxing.

Here it is:

Altered Art Journal

Hi everyone,

I decided to try my hand at a little bit of mixed media art journaling.

I bought an old book from a thrift store.

Tonight I work at the front cover.

Here is the original.

This is how I changed it.

Products Used

paper: Etcetera DSP (SU)

ink: Calypso Coral, Pool Party, Night of Navy (SU)

stamp: Beautifully Baroque (SU)

Liquitex Gesso

ribbons from my stash

Metal Embellishments: recollection

Die: Tim Holtz Tattered Flowers die

I'm going to use this art journal to play.

I want to make something for myself.

I just want to be creative, with no rules, time lines.

Just fun.....

I hope you like it!!

Hugs
