I had so much fun creating this spread yesterday during a crafty Zoom call. I challenged myself to create an art journal spread using the @felicityjanestudio kit, because scrapbooking kits can be used all sorts of ways, not just for scrapbooking. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So I created my first page in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Steven journal. My muse aka my "Steven" is @susannahconway and I picked this line from her lovely book This I Know: "we do survive and then we thrive." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I've got the entire process up on my Youtube channel. Yes, I recorded all of it while on a Zoom call. Just turned on my camera above my desk and let it roll! 😂 https://www.instagram.com/p/CFPmXezJJIz/?utm_medium=tumblr

I'm beginning this new thing where I go to different places around NYC to sketch. I'm calling them "artist dates" and I did my very first one this week with my best friend @j_a_rodriguez88. We went to the American Museum of Natural History and managed to get a few sketches of some animals. I've got an entire vlog about it up on my Youtube channel. I do hope you check it out and let me know what you think. It's completely different from what I normally do and I rather enjoyed it, so I may just do a few more anyway. But I'd still love to hear what you think.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Also, vlogging is hard.

Some pressed flowers in my Silva Rerum from my walk in the park last week. These blossoms are so pretty. If the weather is nice this week, I may take a walk and see if they are still there. Though it's been thunderstorming recently, so I highly doubt it, but it's worth the walk to check.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #tiffartjournals #silvarerum #silvarerumjournal #artjournal #artjournals #artjournaling #artjournaleveryday #artjournalpage #artjournalpages #journaling #journalart #journalpage #journallove #mixedmedia #journalingcommunity #getmessyartjournal #visualjournaling #creativejournaling #creativejournal #loveforanalogue #carveouttimeforart #creativelifehappylife #abmcrafty #cultivatecreativity https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw4kvawhsRd/?igshid=dm03vlaiy3ud

Finally had a little bit of time to sit down and start @getmessyartjournal Season of Failure. I pulled out my favorite spreads and for the most part, they've all got scraped on acrylic paint, a girl image from a magazine, pen scribbles, and paint/ink splatters. So I guess I'm creating a spread that doesn't have any of those things in it next! The no paint splatters though...that has become a staple in my art making process. Splatters everywhere for ALL THE THINGS. It's going to be so hard to resist.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #tiffartjournals #artjournal #artjournals #artjournaling #artjournaleveryday #artjournalpage #artjournalpages #journaling #journalart #journalpage #journallove #mixedmedia #journalingcommunity #getmessyartjournal #gmseasonoffailure #visualjournaling #creativejournaling #creativejournal #loveforanalogue #carveouttimeforart #creativelifehappylife #abmcrafty #cultivatecreativity https://www.instagram.com/p/BwH-KpLBOFL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qx5vejezrb1f

A new journal with me video is now up on my Youtube channel! I'm working in my unraveling journal for the very first time and documenting my one little word for the year, so I always have it and my intentions front and center. ⠀ I also love how my word is BLOOM and the page that begins my journal is from The Secret Garden. It perfectly aligns with my intentions. I swear I didn't do it on purpose. I made this journal way before I even knew my word for the year, but I love how serendipitous it is!

My Get Messy Bootcamp intro page. I enjoy doing these types of pages in my journals. I don't do them often--I prefer a writing-heavy sort of journal introduction--but I do like them.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I created this one in my Unraveling Journal. So it's not quite introducing me to my journal since it's a few pages in, but it is representative of me at the moment. I have an entire process video up on my channel where I explain the motive behind the "a creative mess" bit.

Another spread in my arty bujo. I kind of wrote down my intentions for this journal on this spread. I always do that when I begin a new journal. Does anyone else do that too?

Also, I have a new post up on the blog just sharing a few thoughts on beginnings. Why we love them, why we miss them, and why certain things never quite get you as excited as they did when you first began them. Link in profile if interested.

Sometimes--or most of the time really--I have no idea what I'm doing when I go into journal or scrapbook. Most of the time I don't even have a story to tell. So I glue in scraps from my day--if I have any--and jot a tidbit or what I'm feeling. These times when I don't know what to document, I often feel lost. So you know what? I journal about feeling lost.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I've got a lot of small journaling bits about feeling lost. 😂

I have a brand new free journaling printable up in my shop today for the month of February. Along with it, there's a new sticker sheet and a journal with me video showing you how I've used it in my journal. I made this February intro page and this art journal spread with my printable and stickers. Head on over to the blog to check it all out if you're interested. Printable with only be free for the month of February!

My word for the year is Bloom. It perfectly encompasses all that I want do, be, and have happen this year. I started my Unraveling journal with my word front and center because I want it to be my guide this year. I'm determined to stick with my word this year! No abandoning it like I have done in years past. I was inspired by @miavibes and @megjournals #junkjournaljanuary challenge to include a quote as well. I've got a process video coming to my channel soon of me working on this page and the following two page spread.

day twenty-eight :: my wish for 2018 Nothing but love and good stuff. Gotta stay positive; this world is rough. Also, enjoy this spread from my #theminimalistartjournal #artjournal cause I forgot to take any photos yesterday.

So, I made these planner dividers the beginning of this year for my planner setup that I didn't know would eventually work for me. I used these dividers in that planner for almost the entire year until recently when I setup a new planner for this upcoming year. I made completely new dividers and instead of tossing the old ones into a box, I decided to repurpose them into my unraveling junk journal. I love these little card/doily clusters I made for them using some bits from @theplannersociety kits, that I pulled the clusters off to put on random pages in my journal. Here's one of my favorites. I'm thinking of using the actual dividers themselves as tip-ins too! Nothing shall go to waste...or sit in a box.

Throwback to when I revisited @getmessyartjournal Season of Magic #gmseasonofmagic. This little journal I made has three signatures in it. The first I filled with the Season of Fairytales, and my intention was to fill the other two with Magic and Dreams, respectively. I got about half way with revisiting the season of Magic and haven't even looked back at Dreams. One day I'll get back into this journal because I think it would look amazing if it were completed and all filled up! Anyway, happy Friday friends!

I very much like this polaroid here on that floral paper from @daphnes.diary, super simple just like that.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #tiffartjournals #aerialovely #thelovelyjournal #getmessyartjournal #getmessyart #messypages #mixedmediaartjournal #creativejournal #creativejournals #creativejournaling #visualjournals #visualjournal #visualjournaling #journalingcommunity #junkjournaling #artjournaling #memorykeeping https://www.instagram.com/p/CZCV7v8g19C/?utm_medium=tumblr
