Hi there
world!
So far my good intentions for
blogging more this year! Luckily,
that doesn’t mean I’m not creating at all, just not as much as I want to :-) In February, we had another open
house weekend at the local hobby store. I had the opportunity to demonstrate with
my favorite dylusions sprays again, I love them so much! You can create such colorful yet versatile things with them! You can use them on cards, in an art
journal, on a lay- out or a canvas… I’ll show you a picture of my “stand”
during the open house!
I also started “journal 52”. It is
a FREE yearlong art journaling workshop to keep you inspired and creating all
of 2014. You can find more information at journal52.com
! it’s all “hosted” by Chelle Stein, an art journalist from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Every week, she provides some inspiration to use in our art journal. So far, I’m
at week 3 (oops) but it’s really fun so I’ll definitely continue!
What else happened in February… I
did a workshop to create a mini! Well, actually i’s not so mini at all, the
cover is approximately 25 cm wide and 28 cm high. The pages are 23 cm by 26 cm.
We did the cover, the binding and the first set of inside pages, still lot’s to
do before it’s finished! Hope I have the opportunity to finish it soon (way to
busy with internship at the moment!)
I also did a workshop in the Netherlands for a mini. It’s a book with 2 spines, so there are pages on 2 sides
of the book! Think it will be cool, but also have to finish this one. What
was nice about this workshop is that it includes a wooden box to store the
mini. We painted it, created leather corners and even leather belts, so the box
really looks like a small, old suitcase! Can’t show you pictures yet, it’s far
from finished and it will also be a gift for someone…
Besides demoing and doing workshops,
I’m also creative at my crea desk! For the moment I’m still a big fan of the
dylusions, so I’m creating pages in my art journal with them. But I also use
them on cards and tags (as shown in the
picture).
Samples I made for the open house week 1 to 3 from journal 52
And finally some dylusional creations!
So yeah, finally a small update over
here!
Hope to post more often after my
internship!
In the meantime, let’s be creative!
(don't hesitate to leave a comment :-))
