Art Journal

I played in my little art journal today.


Inspired by:

* Charms Creations ~ Art journal challenge


Not sure if I satisfied the brief correctly, however I used what I had: tissue paper from my stash, stencilling (inspired by Rachel's creations), a face {Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring diecut from Graphic 45 Renaissance Faire collection}.  I used a quote from Tracy Chevalier’s book, Girl with a Pearl Earring.

ATC Challenge - June, part 1

I'm continuing with my mission to join all of the Scrapping Clearly 2025 ATC Challenges. These are the ones I've completed in June so far.

Week 22 ~ Geometrics
This was the last challenge in May, which I didn't complete before the end of the month. I chose triangles for the geometric shape {Pink Paislee Memorandum - Memo patterned paper} and added a sentiment with Dina Wakley Collage Words.


. - . - . - . - . - . - . - . - . - . - . -

Week 23 ~ Whimsical Creatures
I built my ATC around a cute mermaid {Miss Kate’s Cuttables}.


. - . - . - . - . - . - . - . - . - . - . -

Week 24 ~ Celestial
I used {Kaisercraft Stargazer patterned paper}, metallic silver card {upcycled product packaging} and two star punches.


The metallic card is very shiny and pretty, but tricky to photograph from directly above - much easier to see from an angle:


I'm sharing this ATC at Park Hopping My Happy Place ~ June challenge, Celestial Park theme.
