Get Messy | an art journal challenge no. 006

It’s Get Messy Thursday again and I’m back sharing more pages from this week.

I had grand plans of completing these pages before leaving for my trip. Alas, those plans came to naught and I’ll admit that I only completed these pages this morning. But I’m glad these pages came together quickly and I like how they look together.

Inspired by our travels this past week, I punched 1 1/2 inch circles from Studio Calico’s Wanderlust patterned paper, added a tag, some stamping, and a chipboard geotag and called it done. I’ve always loved the look of grids on scrapbook layouts and am glad that I finally got to try them out on this page.

I revived my love for MAMBI’s jumbo stickers on this page. I “watercolored” the background with Mister Huey’s Buttercup mist and stuck the sticker on top.

These week’s pages are still pretty simple, but unlike the muted pages of last week, this week has splashes of color, which I love.

Get Messy is an art journal challenge where a gang of crafty vixens are sharing art journal pages we have created to practise our skills and push past our creative limits with hopes to inspire. We share our pages without restraint every week, and once a month we create around a prompt. Go check out these crazy talented ladies who are creating pages who each have a unique perspective and style. We will be sharing our work around social media so follow the hashtag #getmessyartjournal.
