SEPTEMBER ART JOURNALING WEEK 4 THE WANING MOON

I started with a background paper from the Space Cadet Collection by Crafty Button Designs. Next, I added in elements from the Nocturne Collection by Lynn Grieveson. I used two different moons from Lynn's collection, then added the yellow moon from MultiMedia Moons No 1 by Anna Aspnes. Because I...

I used Moon Glow by Viva Artistry and Space Cadet by Crafty Button Designs. I just let my creativity run away with me. The image of the girl, holding the moon is from Pixabay. I actually built my page around her, because I loved this image so much. All of my pages have had a similar theme...

Created for week one of the September Art Journal Challenge. The background consists of two papers. The bottom paper is a creme colored artsy paper with hints of red and blue from Harvest Moon rising. The top layer is a celestial night sky paper from Celestial Worlds.

Favorite artists and favorite songs - that's a tough one for me. One of my very favorites is the late Bob Marley, so I decided to go with him this month. My first trip to Jamaica was just a few weeks after Bob Marley's early death - (he was only 36). We heard this awesome music over speakers...

For the September Art Journaling Week 1 Challenge *New Moon*. I used Space Cadel Collection by Crafty Button Designs and recolored the moon black, to represent the New Moon.

The theme was Harvest Season, so I used food and fall flowers to represent that. I blended a photograph of an old village and added a poem that I found on Poems.com that was anonymous.
