Beth's page in Rhelda's Journal "Soul Painting"

Here is my page for Rhelda.

Beth's Page in Shari's Journal

Shari's Journal "Sanity By a Thread", as we all know is missing. I have started pages for her. The page will be going to Deedee next.

Kalona's spread for Beth's "Bygone Era"

Well, here it is, a pic taken at 98% complete... so as to leave a bit of a suprise, eh!

This is the 2 page spread together. I've posted the separate pages on the journal section my blog. 

 I've always been into the nicer side of medieval history, you know- the flowing gowns, knights on horses, dragons and chivalry... so it had to be my theme for a bygone age.

There's a bit of my chainmaille in there, some embossed copper, lots of stencilled gel medium, acrylics, pastel pencils and inks. Hope Beth likes it...

Sadie's page for Rhelda's journal

Here is Sadie pages on "Soul Painting". I love your interpretation, Sadi. Wonderful as always.

Marie's journal page for Liz's Journal...

Liz's journal theme is Music/Lyrics.  I was inspired by a recent trip to Jamaica.  It took me sometime to start, even though I knew I wanted to do Reggae theme... but it all came together in one evening.  One Love!

Louise's page in Anne's "Light through the cracks"

Have just finished my page in Anne's gorgeous journal

Sometimes I struggle with the themes and I just need to wait till inspiration strikes,

Once I found this quote the page just flowed.

"When the Japanese mend broken objects, they aggrandize the damage by filling the cracks with gold, they believe that when something's suffered and has a history it becomes more beautiful."

~ Billie Mobayed

My page spread for Kalona's journal

I enjoyed creating this page spread as I am so passionate about anything Italian especially Italy. Hope you like this Kalona!

Mary's page to the post office

Mary's page is finished and on its way to the post office. I already left a message on milliande.ning. Kalona, once again mail on your way:-)

The finished page and the back of the page for Mary.

Update Lucine's creation for Mary

A sneek peek on my page for Mary. Theme: Fairy Tales. I have to add some cuties on the page yet. The page will leave @ the end of this week. I'll confirm and post a pic of the final piece. xoxo .... Lucine

Lucine for Beth

My page in Beth's "Bygone Era" art journal. A really beautiful art journal, but it was a challenge. I conquered and I am so satisfied with this page. Sometimes vintage seems a mystery to me, so I tried to bring some colour in this Bygone Era. I tried to make red look bygone. Hope you'll like it Beth:-D

Anne's Page for Liz

I didn't do a page on music,  I just felt led to do a page featuring a corazon for Liz at this time.

I mailed the page package to Marie Austen yesterday.

Kalona's page for Liz

Ooops- hadn't realised I hadn't posted my page for Liz

I tried to keep to her theme so it all works together when she gets them- had so much trouble with this one, I used to play alot of music but the last few years I've hardly listened to any- think I need to rectify that... Hope you like it Liz!

Hi Ladies, I have posted on Milliande about another lost journal. If you are not following on Milliande, please check my post there. http://milliande.ning.com/forum/topics/15-artists-15-journals-15-months

Pages for Liz received

I got the package of pages from Kalona today.  I'll probably add my page to them by next week.

Just wanted to let Louise, Deedee, and Trine know that their journals are now with Mary M. ----I checked my confirmation numbers on each one and they made it to her September 6th. Thought you would like to know : )

Received ...

The art journals are really moving, yayyy☺  I received a page for Mary (theme: Fairy Tales). A second AJ was delivered; theme is: Bygone Era, so it is Beth's AJ. I'm so glad to have an art journal of this round robin again. Beth's art journal is just sooo beautiful! It is so nice to watch impressions of the good old time. Awesome, really awesome.

My pages in Trine and Deedee's  journals.............

Trine wanted to let you know I have your BLUE journal and am done creating in it and it will be moving it's way to Mary this weekend along with the other two journals I have that I finished in....they are all going in seperate packages with confirmation...I just wanted you to know it got here safe and sound and I LOVED working in it. I hope you like what I have created in it and I will post pictures soon : )

Marie's Journal page for Rhelda

This is my contribution to Rhelda's journal pages.  I was drawn to this quote "Alphabet for the Soul" that I saw in a mixed media magazine Somerset, I believe and had to incorporate it onto my journal page.  Hope you like it Rhelda.

Louise I finsihed in your Totem Animals journal and SO enjoyed working in it. I took photos and packaged up your journal to send on. My stupid camera did a belly flop and croaked, corrupting all the files I had on it...I lost the photos so am unable to post my pages in your journal :( Sorry, I did want to let you know what happened though so you would not wonder why I did not post the pics here.

My pages in Elvira's Hands of an Artist journal.....

Journal Page for Lucine's Journal - August 2012

Hi Ladies! It's been a while since I posted some journal pages. Posted Marie's journal page a few minutes ago. Created it in June 2012 and Loren should have that journal already. Now I finally finished a journal page spread for Lucine's journal. Hope you like it Lucine! Hugs, ---Mary

Marie's Journal - June 2012

My Journal Page for Marie's Nature Journal:

Marie, I did add a quote and some embellishments besides the roses and lattice. I just forgot to take the final picture of it. I hope you like it. ---Hugs, Mary

I just wanted to let the folks whose journals I have, and will be working on to get them onto the next, who they are so they are not wondering or worried where their beautiful journals are....
I will be sending Kal's on tomorrow as mentioned,
   I will be working on the following journals and will be sending them out as soon as finished with each....
Elvira's.....Louise's....and Deedee's.  Beth had a trip planned and wanted to be sure they all got to me asap so as not to hold anything up....so I will do my best to get them worked in and sent out as soon as I can. Just wanted to let you all know : )
Shari "Rtist"

Kal your journal will be off to Mary tomorrow....here are my pages in your wonderful journal "Journeys". Hope you like, I went a more direct route...my heart is in the UP of Michigan along with my families history (especially up in copper country and the Copper Harbor area) so that was my focus for your pages.

Sanity by a Thread

I have enjoyed working 

in Shari's beautiful journal

It became quite contemplative

as I played with lots of layers.

I have been going through a lot lately

so my page reflects the things

that help me maintain my own sanity 

I hope you like it Shari <3

Bygone Era

I worked in Beth's journal while I was away traveling

I had limited resources to art or research 

so I had to take my inspiration from a pic

 someone had kindly donated in the back pocket- thank you.

I liked the symmetry of traveling with a traveling art journal :)

and I hope you like your page Beth.

Alice in Wonderland on Halloween

Here is my page in Loren's lovely journal,

I was very challenged by this theme

 as we don't celebrate Halloween

 and I have not read Alice - yet.

I didn't let that stop me though 

and I enjoyed it very much.

Sadie's page in Deedee's journal "Nature Dreams Visions"

Wonderful, as always!

Lucine's page for Liz

Hello ladies,

Here is my page for Liz. I had to finish the page I already started and here it is. I worked on both sides of the page. So we have two pages. It was a pleasure to create this for Liz. Tomorrow is a day with a walk to the post office:-))

Just a quick note..

Hi all, hope you're enjoying your journalling!!

I'm just adding a note because I've noticed that the "You might like" boxes that I've added to my blog are also on here. There doesn't seem to be anything I can do to make these ones attach to 15+ posts. Does anyone know how to separate them? I only added the widget to my personal blog so wasn't expecting them to appear here anyway, but as it's a blogger tool it seems to work on all associated blogs. Sorry! Not trying to shamelessly self-promote, honestly! If I can find a way to separate the blogs I will... any ideas?

Beth's page in Louise's Journal "Totem Animal"

I did not know about Totem animals and it was great fun learning about them. I knew immediately that my animal was a deer, mainly a doe.
White-tail deer live in the woods of Pennsylvania. I have always been amazed that such a large magnificent animal can live within the area I live. I have loved them my whole life.

Page for Rhelda by Anne T

Lately I've been doing lots of mixed media art using photos I've taken of old, rusting trucks.  So when the package arrived from Kalona of pages for Rhelda's journal on the theme "Soul Play",  the stamped phrase sprung to mind, I printed out another set of photos,  laid down a background of Derwint Inktense Block colours, which I activated with acrylic glaze, snipped, stamped, and put it together.

Sadie's Page in Louise's Journal "Totem Animal"

Sadie's totem animal is the Elephant. Wonderful page! The elephant texture is so perfect. Thank you, Sadie, for the many extras you sent me. I have already used some.
