DAY 21 | #MarchMeetTheMaker | THROWBACK ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Still my favorite handmade journal...the Salvaged Journal that I call "DJ" since it was made from an old dictionary. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Made with lots of handmade, messy papers and sewn into an old book. This is my favorite method for making journals. Join over 340+ students for this popular online workshop. Link in bio - click on WORKSHOPS. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #creativelifehappylife #createmakeshare #wearethemakers #makersmovement #instacraft #themakers #dreamjobmakers #liveauthentic #techsavvyartist #artistandtechsavvy #calledtocreate #creativegifts #godsgifts #godsgiftstous #laptoplifestyleliving #artistandchristian #mixedmediaartist #salvagedjournal #artistjournal #visualjournal #artjournals #mixedmediajournal #junkjournals #ilovejournals #handmadebooks #handmadejournals
DAY 20 | #MarchMeetTheMaker | DESIGN PROCESS⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am a bit loosey-goosey when it comes to my design process. I start by looking at my supplies and pulling things that catch my attention: paints, papers, pens, pencils and other art supplies. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sometimes I know what I want to create, but most of the time, I just start my adding paper or paint to a canvas or journal page and that gets me started. I don't have a magic formula. I just go with the flow.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Our challenge host is @joannehawker⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #creativelifehappylife #createmakeshare #wearethemakers⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #makersmovement #instacraft #themakers #dreamjobmakers #liveauthentic #techsavvyartist #artistandtechsavvy #calledtocreate #creativegifts #godsgifts #godsgiftstous #laptoplifestyleliving #artistandchristian #mixedmediaartist #artsupplies #artstudiopeek #artisttable #onmyarttable #artistpaints #artistssupplies #craftroom #craftroompeek
DAY 18 | #MarchMeetTheMaker | MISTAKE OR LESSON ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I'm going to get real here. I found it ironic that today was about sharing a mistake or a lesson. Today I have been feeling pretty inadequate. I went into the studio to create and the best I could do was clean up my art table. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Oh, and I also watched a Hallmark Movie and ate some crackers. I pretty much have nothing to show for the time I spent in there trying to create. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Today has been one of those days where I ask myself what on earth I am even doing. It is the kind of day where I feel like quitting. I know there are many factors that impact me and I know that I put too much pressure on myself. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I suppose that I am sharing a mistake AND a lesson today. The mistake is not being kind and gentle with yourself when you feel insecure or unable to create. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The lesson is to step away when those moments come. Remove the pressure and ask yourself if this is just a bad day or are you trying to force creativity? This last week I have been trying to figure out what I want my theme to be for The 100 Day Project. I have completed this project the last two years and was planning to do it again. Only, I am stressed out and haven't found anything that is going to "wow" me for 100 days straight. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Perhaps the pressure of 100 days of anything right now is too much for me. I'm not sure, but I decided to take a nap this afternoon and it was just what I needed!😴 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Our challenge host is @joannehawker ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #creativelifehappylife #createmakeshare #wearethemakers #makersmovement #instacraft #themakers #dreamjobmakers #liveauthentic #techsavvyartist #artistandtechsavvy #calledtocreate #creativegifts #godsgifts #godsgiftstous #laptoplifestyleliving #artistandchristian #studiospace #studiopeek #creativespaces #mixedmediaartist #wordsofwisdom #coffeemugs

DAY 16 | #MarchMeetTheMaker | WORKSPACE (TIDY/MESS) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My space is a little of both. My art table is usually a bit messy because of all the projects I have going at one time, but the other areas are tidy. It is easier for me to create when things around me are organized. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Our challenge host is @joannehawker ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #creativelifehappylife #createmakeshare #wearethemakers #makersmovement #instacraft #themakers #dreamjobmakers #liveauthentic #techsavvyartist #artistandtechsavvy #calledtocreate #creativegifts #godsgifts #godsgiftstous #laptoplifestyleliving #artistandchristian #studiospace #studiopeek #creativespaces #mixedmediaartist #organizingideas #theartofdisplay Photo Credit: @rachel_luis_photography
