Creating an Art Journal in 2022 - A Creative Start

Today I am excited to share the start of my 2022 Art Journal!  Art journaling was something I played around with in 2021 and loved the freedom it gave me to just create! To try new techniques. To try new stamps, new textures and USE my papers and scraps! 


I know that I will not love all my creations and some won't even ever be seen!  But this is by me and for me so that's ok!   No Rules! No Limits (except for paper size!


  

For this year's journal, I choose a travel journal I had picked up off of amazon that I loved and had hope to use as a scrapbook of sorts but felt the pages were too thin. But I couldn't let it go to waste so it will be my Art Journal!  And I love the size.  Roughly 4 1/8  x 6 3/4 inches.  Big enough to get creative but not so big that it would get overwhelming. You Can find the exact journal on Amazon  if you want to try the same one, but any 3 to 6 ring binder will do! and in Any size.
