2016 Mini Journal Update

Some pages from the latest mini-journal.  Slow going, but at least it's going.

Playing with Paint and Patterns



I find it a bit calming to paint and stamp repeating patterns.

DIY Stamps

 While fooling around on Pinterest, I got inspired to make some stamps.  Been a while since I've carved up a batch, which means: I can no longer locate any of the rubber or lino materials.  So I looked around on my desk and saw some soft foam that had been used in packaging something important.  A few cuts with the box cutter, and voila!  Cat stamps!  The top part was before I poked the foam with a ballpen to make eyes (as seen on the bottom four).




Then it hit me that all the stamps I had made before, I've never made a skull stamp.  Nary a one!  A problem which had to be rectified.  Eraser meets X-acto knife equals a couple of skulls.  An 'X' cut from a foam sheet and stuck to a plastic bottle cap completes the set.

Muse Shoving Journals in My Face

Giving some attention to my poor neglected journals.  I haven't filled them all up yet, and already I'm planning on making yet another one.



Here, experimenting with some wax resist. Had to clean off some serious dust gathered on my watercolor box.
