What's your Style?
Is the theme for February over at Art Journal Journey
Chosen for us by Bleubeard and Elizabeth
Please call over to see how they have introduced the theme to us all
and see the inspiration they have shared.
'My Style'......
Some of the photos of previous journal pages that I was thinking about when pondering the subject of this months theme at Art Journal Journey, which I blended together to create the page.
There are pages with stamping, stencils, napkins. cut outs, material etc.
I used this quote because
it seemed to tell me to be myself
creating this page,
where I am today on my
crafting journey.
How did my crafting begin........
Stamping came first, with inks, paints etc and generally allowing myself to get messy, then stencils, even more fun with sprays and textures.
I tried die cutting but it wasn't for me although I am now enjoying using pop out die cut images.
Fussy cutting I find difficult with fingers that do not do as they are told.
Many years ago I Started making ATC's joining an online group and swapping with folk who I am still in touch with now. I also made cards as I think most of us do.
Blogland introduced me to journaling and you could say I became hooked on this
method of creating art.
Currently.....
Digital crafting using my own hands on work as well as computer generated images and programs,
has allowed me to continue my crafting journey, especially though the difficult and sad times that have occurred in my family in the last couple of years.
If I feel like mess, out comes the paint, ink etc.. these days I am more likely to
turn on the computer.
We hope you will join us at Art Journal Journey this month and share
'Your Style' with us there.
That is certainly your style, Yvonne. I have always been so impressed with your digital art. I was delighted to learn how you started your crafting experience, too. Thanks for this great first entry this month for my theme at Art Journal Journey.
ReplyDeleteYou and also Elizabeth had such a super idea of blending pages together. It’s fun to see what you put together. I always think of napkins in your art as well as you wonderful digital designs. It’s going to be fun to see what people create this month. I hope you have a wonderful February Yvonne and I hope all is well. Take care. Hugs Erika
ReplyDeleteI am a stamper, first and foremost, but how I envy those of you who do digital art. Some of the creations you have done just simply amaze me and I love seeing your work. I think I am too old to try something new so I will have to be content with just looking at your art work.
ReplyDeleteI love your first entry for Elizabeth's theme, what a wonderful idea to "stitch" together various pieces you have done in the past. What lovely memories are stored together in that one piece. Thank you Yvonne, for such a lovely journal page today.
Hugs, Neet xx
Lovely page, and the quote is fantastic, so true. Have a great week, stay safe, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteHi Yvonne! I absolutely love your style, which I think is unique and beautiful. I love that you use digital art in your work, too. (I have learned a little about digital, but not enough to incorporate it into my work yet.) This collage of your style is absolutely gorgeous, and I sooooo love your quote, too! Thanks for sharing!! HUGS, Sharon
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely to see this lovely digital collection of some of your previous pages. Digital has really become your style, especially the hybrid pages. This is my third attempt at commenting, I am using my old tablet at the moment, hugs, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteI've always loved your style Yvonne there's usually an element of nature, flora or fauna stamped or displayed via your fabulous digi images. A wonderful display you have presented us. February Hugs Tracey xx
