Journal page for Anxiety


Now that school's out I'd like to spend some time each day working on my journal. A group I belong to has daily word and quote prompts. This is my page for Anxiety.

Altered picture book



Here is a page from the book that I'm turning into an albume of doodles/zentangles. It was actually an old book from an encyclopedia set that I have thinned and added frames. I plan to add some journaling at some point.

Tangled Greetings

This weekend I did some tangling on scrapbook paper, then attached it to a greeting card. Used 2 size markers, .05mm and .01mm, able to get in some fine detail.

A "not-so-tangled" card, simple can be better, sometimes.

AB for ATC's

I started with a granola box for the cover.
Then I covered the cardboard with fabric to go with the fabric pages inside. I used ultra-fusible web to adhere the fabric, adding the letters on top.
The pages are two layers of fabric zigzagged together with cardstock inside to give the pages stiffness. A yarn tie holds the pages in and more could easily be added by slipping behind the tie.

Yarn ties also hold ATC's in place. I'm not real happy with that part because I couldn't get them tight enough and the cards slip. I intend to keep working on a better way.





New FunkyJournal page

Here is another page in the FunkyJournal. I drew this on a separate paper and glued it in. Then I removed the next page of the to book to reduce bulk and glued this page and the next one together for stability.

More of my funky journal

Here's the newest page in my "FunkyJournal". I decorated with lots of tangling around a flower I found in a magazine.
