So, as you well know, I’ve been doing a bit of collaging recently, which has led me to more of a practical combination of collaging and scrapbooking. Art journaling. I’ve made mini little art journals before, but this one’s big.  The largest page so far is 12×12. I’ve the pages individually from each other, and then I put them together to sit in piles until I have enough for a book. Then, I guess I’ll decide how to put it all together. Not the most practical order of events… oh well.

Hairspray has totally turned my life around lately.  I hadn’t used it consistently since I was in middle school.  But lately I’ve been having fun spraying and teasing and just having an all around good time styling my hair.  It’s the joy and curse of being a girl.  And weirdly enough, it’s inspiring to me in my crafty endeavors as well.  So there you have it, darlings.

Lately I have been stuck in such a creative rut.  But Saturday I was able to spend some time with my friend Jera, and something deep down inside of me was sparked.  That little spark turned into the urge to begin collaging again.  I’ve never really done a lot in this area, and I think that’s something I want to change.  Here’s the first page I’ve done in quite  awhile.  Maybe it seems a bit out of season, now that everyone’s so excited about Fall.  But it’s just what happened, and I’m not one to mess with the creative flow.  Right?
