Art Journaling

I'm learning a new technique - Art Journaling.  The March Scrapbook Pajama Party was learning the basic of art journling.  I don't think I did too bad for the 1st time.
Day 15 and 16 - Title going vertical instead of horizontal.

Okay, this is what happens when you complete a layout and it just does seem to work for you.  It bugs you all night and day until you go and do something about it.  So, here is the redo of the layout that I did yesterday for Day 13.  13, maybe that's why it didn't work for me.    Also pictured is today's challenge which is a card with the greeting going down the side instead of horizontal as in most cards.

My  project tonight was to complete the Black History Month Bingo Layout.  The challenge was to see how many ways to win bingo by using the items on the bingo card.  Example: ribbon, die cut, brad, quote, etc.  It also had to reflect my moment of black history.   Here's my project.

My project today was completing the layout for the Make It Meaningful Challenge #4.  it was about my first childhood home.  I had to go to Dad for information about my first bedroom.  He tells me the room was sky blue. He wanted a boy.  I'll deal with him later-LOL.  Anyway, here's my completed project.

My Favorite Layout - My Parents.  This was created based on the theme of "Thankful".
My Favorite Card!
One of my new projects this year with my scrapbook on -line family Scraps of Colors is a project called "My Life Is A Project.  I will be creating a monthly picture journal of my life for a year, December 2013 to December 2014. Instead of layout pages, I will be using pocket page protectors.  They will be a page(s) for each month that will tell what my month was about.  In the end I will have a book that will tell my life for the year 2014.  Please enjoy my journey through the year!
