Take 5 Art Journal Collaboration - Learning to Fly

I'm back with another #take5art journal challenge with the ladies (links to their channels can be found in the video description) and this time around, we basically had free reign over what we want to use as long as they are the oldest or old supplies from our stash.



Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching. Please be sure to use the hashtag #take5art and tag me on YouTube or Instagram to notify me that you're participating as well. It would be so much fun if more people joined in :-)

Traveler's Notebook Process - Silly Selfie

I do not usually take selfies but I was feeling rather bored last Valentine's and decided to play with a few Snapchat face filters. And took this shot. I knew I had to put it into my traveler's notebook someday. I need to be brave enough to take more selfies and include them into my memory keeping.



Hope you enjoy this video featuring a rather silly selfie :-)

Take 5 Art Journal Collaboration - Nothing Is Impossible

I've really enjoyed participating in the #take5art challenge / collaboration on YouTube and it's been a blast coming up with different pages based on the prompts given by Kyra.

Prompts for August:
- text paper (paper containing text or fonts)
- napkins
- use packaging to apply media
- white
- yellow



I hope you enjoy watching the video and let me know should you have any feedback or suggestions.

Celebrate Stars Card

It's been a long time since I participated in a Simon Says Stamp challenge and this card is for both the Monday and Wednesday challenge. I used the Simon Says Stamp Stacked Stars and the Waffle Flower Celebrate dies along with a stitched rectangular die. I layered a few of the celebrate word so that it pops up a bit. It's a simple card but I do prefer the look of clean and simple cards most of the time.

• SSS Wednesday Challenge "Clean and Simple"

Mixed Media Crazy Bird Birthday Card

One of my favourite crafty things to do is to play with Distress Paints and today I thought of incorporating the card I've made for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge into a mixed media series that I'm doing on my channel. Do check out the video at the end of this post.

I'm really pleased with how the card turned out and all the different techniques I applied to the Distress Paints. I especially love the mixed media backgrounds I worked on and the Tim Holtz Crazy Birds stamp set was pretty cute too. I only have 3 of those birds in my set. It was one of those "made for Michaels" (or was it JoAnns?) sets that came with the coordinating dies too.

 

This is probably one of the cutest cards I've made :-)

Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!

Traveler's Notebook Process - Cameron Highlands

My husband and I took a mini vacation and went up Cameron Highlands to enjoy the cool weather, beautiful scenery and food. Of course I had to journal about the trip in my traveler's notebook, especially after a friend printed out an Instax photo on her printer. I think I need an Instax printer too! 



Hope you enjoyed the video and thanks so much for watching!

Take 5 Art Collaboration - Smiles Are Free

Hey everyone, I did another Take5Art collaboration at the last day of July and this time around, the prompts were pretty interesting. They were;

- 2 stencils
- stickers
- circles
- white
- lips

I admit, the last one really stumped me but I think it turned out ok in the end.

The Take 5 Art involves 5 prompts that are randomly drawn. We will then use the 5 prompts in our art journaling and upload our projects together at the end of the month. It's so much fun! Be sure to use the hashtag #take5art if you're joining us. Also do check out the links on my video to see what the other ladies are up to.
