No, neither of those ideas crossed my mind … that’s why I need the experts to help
I just realized my last page followed a March prompt … embellishment from a master board (two of the flowers were punched from a painted master board)
My March pages
The dress on the paper doll is a paint-y master board and it’s hard to see in the photo but there is gold paint and masking tape on the dress too. Grids/squares, quote, favorite animal (birds), and postage stamps. I think that’s everything.
Does anyone else want to make a list of prompts for April?
After saying I wasn’t going to buy any more of Alisa Burke’s classes, I picked up her flower journal class on sale for $10 a couple weeks ago. I thought flowers were specific and different enough from her other stuff. While it is still a bit “more of the same” I am enjoying the different focus.
I tried out abstract flowers yesterday. It is a bit square to fit at least one of the March prompts, right?
She makes it easy to buy more with her frequent sales. I considered it myself.
Your page is so bright and cheery!

I kept meaning to post this earlier in the week -
Any one up for art journaling Sunday at 2pm Eastern time?
This video is good because he shows you how to just use random objects to make abstract art.
Supplies:
- various types of paper for collaging (book, music, ledger, etc)
- adhesive
- a scraper - cardboard, credit card, spatula, etc
- gesso
- acrylic paints
- damp cloth
- things for texture
- sponge on roller with rubber bands
- the roller on your brayer wrapped with twine
- wall paper
- corrugated cardboard / coffee sleeve
- bubble wrap
- block wrapped with twine (I used a stamp block)
- paper and pencil and scissors to cut out stencil/masks
- paint brushes
- stamps and ink
- bottle caps/ pen lids/ empty paper or tape rolls
- something to make marks - oil pastels, inks, gelatos, etc.
- I’ll be there!
Aw! I will miss this one, but I’ll try to still do it on my own and share.
I’ve been thinking all week that I should post to see if anyone wanted to do a zoom this weekend
Looks fun, and a way to play with ALL of the supplies lol.
I was thinking this week I’m missing zoom sessions and here you post one.
Anyone else want to art journal tomorrow? Link is 4 posts up
Maybe? I’ll click yes but may end up bowing out.
I’ve said yes, but I might not be able to make it. My daughter has her graduation for her Master’s in just, and we’re having a few people around for food. If they are gone, I’ll jump on. Otherwise I’ll just keep on being the hostess with the mostest
I’ll join if I can - I’ve been having a very pressured time at work the last few weeks, but I think I could do with a little art break. And, I miss you guys
Plans changed - I’m in!
We miss you too! Hope you can make it.
I’d like to but we spent the entire day out of the house & tomorrow I gotta sew. I feel the itch to stitch!
Have fun y’all
Thank you for tagging me I need to sit this one out though. Hopefully I can make it to the next!
Not going to join today after all … finally have a beautiful day and I just can’t sit inside. Another snowstorm forecast for tonight and tomorrow so gotta get outside while I can.
I’m also going to sit today’s out, but I look forward to seeing everyone’s results!
