Mixed Media Art Journal Page - Amanda Trought
I created this Art Journal page in my Gratitude's and Celebration Journal, a journal that I spent time in weekly creating a page and writing out the things I was grateful for that week. It is so important to spend time in reflection, thinking about where you are going, where you are and where you have come from.
Check out the Video below:
It is important to focus on the things you are grateful for and appreciate, the very things we sometimes take for granted helps lift our spirits and encourage us to move forward in many different ways.
The page was created from that 'dreaded blank page' and we can often get hung up about not knowing what to create, and then allow the 'blank page syndrome, to take hold of us. How do you approach your blank pages? With Fear? or with delight in a new adventure?
Playing with the page meant that applying color and washi tape and not over think it, the only thing you need to focus on is applying something to the page.
I then added additional layers including stencils, stamps, again just playing on the page with supplies - you will never look at the blank page again in the same way!
I approach each and every surface as an adventure! It is alright to walk away from the page and you don't have to do everything in one sitting. I came back and then added the image and additional stamps.
Go find your blank page and take some time to play.
Stay blessed and be a blessing!
