Welcome to the fourth and final week of April Art Journal Challenges. We have been focusing on growth this month and I hope that you are seeing your art journaling skills grow along with your creative talents.
For this week's challenge, we will start with a visualization. Think about something that grows. It could be a seed or a plant. Perhaps it's a child, or even you as a child. How about an idea, something inside of you that begins its journey small, maybe it even feels insignificant. But then that idea grabs hold and grows. As you think about this, focus on its beginnings and then visualize it growing and expanding. How does its progress, or your progress, make you feel?
When you start to scrap, maybe this feeling or visualization will inspire your page.
Again, you can choose to do a single page each week, or do a divided template - one part for each week. If you don't have the Divided Template and would like to have it, you can get it here at Dropbox. Thank you to Ona @wombat146 for providing the template choices for us! If you do the template, we would love it if you would post it incrementally. Post one done in the first week, post an image of the two together on the second, and three on the third, and then the finished page on the fourth week.
The template is NEVER a requirement to use, just something fun and different if you want to use it.
I have had a rough week with some personal issues making me feel less optimistic than I like. I started to think back to the many fits and starts that I see within myself as I continue to grow as a person. At first, I was going to put on a happy face and scrap something positive. However, sometimes growth can be hard, leading me to the page I made this week.
