A Soul Journey: My first art journal
Lately I have been obsessed with my art journal. I have wanted to work in an art journal for a while now but never could seem to get started. Then a great artist by the name of Sarah Whitmire posted a challenge on her blog that I happened upon. This challenge is really a daily prompt to create a spread in a journal. So far there isn't a LOT of journaling but I am guessing we will get to that eventually.
This has been a real blast and if any of you have been thinking of doing an art journal this might be a good way to get started.
I'm posting each day on my other blog: http://averageamericangirl.com if you want to see and Sarah site where all of the prompts are posted is: http://sarahwhitmire.blogspot.com/

- What a great site, Christy! Thank you! I've enjoyed Sarah's blog and look forward to playing along, as I have the time. I've been working on a Healing Art Journal and I need to get back to it. This is just the inspiration I needed!

- I have begun my journal for this project. It's really helping me clean out some cobwebs. As I get further along, I'll add a new page to my website where I will share my adventure...or I may just blog about it, but I wanted to say again how much that site has inspired. Today, I'm creating my armor. :) I'm a little behind, but no matter. It's easy to catch up.

- I stopped where I was and decided to make a new journal for this project, so I'm making the "Easy Peasy" journal that I found on YouTube. I've added a link to it, on my latest blog. Just FYI. The journal I was using was small and not too sturdy, so as soon as the new one is finished, I'll get back to journaling!
