A new addiction....."Art Journaling"

My dear friend Elena introduced me to "Art Journaling". She sent me two videos and a hand-made journal she made just for me.


I watched the first video on Sunday afternoon and as I watched it my heart started beating so fast and got so excited my husband thought that I had won a cruise with Tim Holtz! I said no. I had discovered a new  addition and addiction (as if I needed another one.....). Today I made my first page....






I also painted a bunch of other ones ready to be journaled. I loved "feeling" the paints in my hands and playing with colors! (I haven't had so much fun since finger painting in Kindergarten!!!) I used some of the newest Prima screens and Donna Downey stamps.










Have a blessed and fabulous day!
