copyright christine echelbarger, thank you

i bought this journal at a Petco with some friends, odd enough as it is its one of the cutest purchases i've made.

You know I can't be idle. It's just not in me. So, while sitting, attempting to watch the dreaded mind-numbing garbage that projects from the horrible box in our living room, I carved these journaling stamps. Thought they might be fun to play with...

Pencil, sharpie, white uni-ball pen

Journaling: fiction begins by adding a little lie to the truth. In fact our life is fiction!

Inspired by it’s beauty and diversity, this exhibit followed the path of a family that was exploring Australia for the first time. A journal that recorded their findings would serve as wayfinding signage, leading the visitor through various interactive exhibits and tanks.

 

This exhibit would have featured fish, plants, and animals, all native to Australia.

I have more of my art in the galleries at crafthappy.com/

Come by and visit sometime.

One of my favorite things to do is illustrate blank journals. This one is a Chinese Calligraphy journal that I have painted using watercolor and gold leaf. I glued an envelope inside where I keep some pumpkin cards that I painted.

Batiked fabric used, overlapped the top and bottom edges with fabric, satin stitched the sides only.

This A6 journal is crafted of linen fabric in ivory color, embellished with a cotton lace. Filled with lined paper, included some yellow pages.

My first journal from Mary Ann Moore's Remains of the Day class. Very cool.

 

Cover is a patchwork of upholstery fabrics, vintage lace, old doily scraps, and the tie is made from the bottom edge of a skirt I cut off that was too long. Black stitches are the binding.

I recently decided to get back into Illustrated, Visual Journaling...and ran into the same problem I run into with every journal I have ever started!!!...:)

Unfortunately THE COLOR ON THIS DID NOT COME OUT WELL...! The GREEN YOU SEE IS ACTUALLY GOLD METALLIC INK.

Could not fix it without too much distortion.

 

I am posting this totally IMPERFECT first page....and now I am FREE!!!! Anything else HAS to be better!!!!!....:)

Rainy day caused damage to my journal cover AGAIN!!!

Journaling to be added at my leisure when all my journal pages are done.

Bonne lecture ! ;o)

Sam made this page for me for the Fabric Art Journal page trade. My theme is fairytales / legends / myths from their country.

Sam lives in UK, and made this page from the legend / myth about the Mermaid of Zennor (Cornwall). The page is marvellous, with a lot of details. The front page has four small pages to open.

Made from lined & plain office paper, as well graph paper. Double sided decorative scrapbook paper from MME. File folders altered as well as pink paper bags fill this album which include many additional journaling cards. Binding is hand sewn pages. Fabric binding on outside. Covers are recycled cardboard. Handmade flowers, paper doilies & stickers adorn front & back. Silver beads hand from 2 bookmarks & from outside binding.

I'm finally writing a real journal!

 

I've been meaning to do that forever, but it's been very challening to start again after many, many years. A few days ago I received this wonderful gift, a new journal, from Bumblesweet. It was such an inspiration, I just started to write. I think I'm doing it right this time, 'cause it suddenly feels very easy. I'm not expecting too much, not having the need to write about everything, not minding too much about how I write, not spending forever to find a perfect pen. The most important thing is to just write.

 

I've been wasting so much time and finally learned that anything is better than nothing. I really want to document this special time of my life, or at least some of it. Yes, I've taken tons of photos about everything, but writing down your thoughts and feelings is still different. I feel like reconnecting with myself on a deeper level. Even if it was just a page a day about the little things in my life.

 

What a precious gift to give to a friend.
