And yes you were right.. Our NEWEST RELEASE will all be CLING MOUNTED. Yes we all love naked rubbah don’t we? but I have been getting incessant emails about mounting.. and decided to go for it :)… This will be starting ONLY with our newest release and we will be working backwards (LOL) to try to get everything mounted but it involves A LOT of work.. so we shall call it a CONSTANT work in progress to ultimately achieve the goal of having everything mounted. The BETTER goal is that we are hoping this won’t involve a price change either :).. so best of both worlds right? right!
Ok let’s discuss AJ TOOSDAY shall we? The theme this week was ANYTHING GOES… sometimes it’s nice to have a ‘prompt’ and sometimes it’s nice to just let loose.. so please remember, even if I give a prompt, EVERY WEEK is ESSENTIALLY a free week because you can submit anything you want and I will showcase it. I believe so much in art journaling that I just want to share it with everyone.. that being said, let loose, have fun.. scribble, draw, drip, droop (LOL).. do what ever da HECK you want on a page and submit it. come on.. I dare ya!
So let’s see what our little AJ sistahood came up with shall we?
I got a little carried away this last week with “arting” that I made a couple of AJ pages and some canvases have been born :).. if you follow me on IG, you will see a lot more samples but I will try my best to share with you here
I have been looking at this stamp for a long time… since it’s creation, I always loved it. I can’t explain why.. She certainly is not our most popular stamp but I had to make her because she just made me happy. She gave me such a good feeling so I had to clean her up and stamp her on BELLA’S BESTEST NEW VELLUM! (trying it out sistahs but so far looking amazing and will be for sale soon)… Take a looky. Her name is BUTTERFLY KISSES. and because I love her so much, I wanted to share her so I put her on sale 🙂 you can find her in our “SPECIALS” tab. enjoy!
Here’s another one using our BE WHOO YOU ARE owl… He’s on the bottom right stamped on our vellum and colored in with prismacolor pencils 🙂
Next week’s theme is to use CLOUDS somewhere on your page.. I love dreamy fluffy clouds :). Again, you don’t have to follow this…. submit anything you feel like playing with 🙂
Mwah to da sistahs who ARE SCARED to AJ but who will try 🙂
Mwah mwah

Beautiful pages everyone, really love the colors in Violets page.
great inspirational content this week! thanks for sharing everyone!
I think that AJ Tuesday is my favorite day of the week. I love seeing what ya’ll have been up to. Each time I open my journal I have a fear of “what is going to happen”, but truly it is so freeing just to play.
Emily do you have a looking glass into my paper playground? I have a piece of cloud paper that has been sitting on my desk for weeks. Just waiting. Waiting for me to do something with it. Now I know where it will go!
See ya’ll next week.
Leslie and Pinky I love the quotes you used and they made me feel so much better after a rather depressing week on my home front. Two people sick in our house so i had no time to journal (sigh!) I loved all the colours and all the different types of layering everyone did on their pages! You all made my day today! Thank you! Heather
Christian’s page is wonderful…. shows a lot of potential for a 7 year old. Mama Mary must be so proud! 🙂
I am so scared to try – I bought the book – have been looking at each challenge – but am so scared of creating without the bounds of a card!!!!!
Hi Jennifer – I think we all feel that way sometimes. I try not to look at the process having to be perfect. (In my former job I had to aim for perfection so that is a natural tendency for me) Art journalling is just pure fun – outcome doesn’t matter. Just play. It is fun. Pinky swear. 😉
I am thinking about it. I haven’t water colored in awhile and it would be nice to do it with out having to worry about matching it to patterned paper. I know we don’t have to use sv stamps or any stamps at all but I have been dying to use my uptown girl Ava. All right I am going to at least stamp the image now 🙂
