FIRST KEEP THE PEACE WITHIN YOURSELF,
THEN YOU CAN ALSO BRING PEACE TO OTHERS.

Journal Cover

So if you have been following my blog you will have seen that I have been really busy with online courses.  I have been busy with an art journal one done through Christy Tomlinson, who I just love.  So I have started my journal and have completed a few pages,  This is the cover of the journal.  I gessoed the cover and then used a brayer to cover with paint..  I then used all sorts of things to create texture, stamps, stencils and rubons.  I then did the 3 hearts.  The big one is just cardstock covered in buttons.  The purple one is tissue paper attached to cardstock and the last one is covered in strips of ribbon..  Added my words and the cover was done.

Hope you enjoy this page.
