Lucine for Loren: Halloween in Wonderland

Three art journals I will mail to the United Kingdom today. I finished the last art journal I had. It's Loren's with Halloween in Wonderland as theme. There are very nice pages in this journal. Here I share with the page I created for Loren. I wonder how I could mix Halloween with Alice in Wonderland. I assumed Halloween in Wonderland must be a mix of Halloween and Alice in Wonderland. Love this theme as it is another challenge to be creative in a very broad way. Vivid colours can be used on both themes, but one can choose to do Alice in Wonderland in a vintage look. Loren's art journal has black pages, so I used a lot of white in addition to collages. I hope Loren enjoys this page.

Haiku: Lucine for Sadie

Great things about a Round Robin is that someone's art journal passes you. You challenge the theme of your partner and share your page with others. I received Sadie's art journal a couple of weeks ago. The theme of Sadie's art journal is Haiku. So I will create an art journal page for Sadie in her Haiku art journal. Yes, I had to look up what Haiku was. Once heard of it, but I could not remember what it was. It is an interesting poetry style. I came up with several Haiku's and I share my best Haiku's with Sadie in her art journal.

These simple words

life hope trust

where to find

We and trust

in our nature

We and hope

it will be given

me to you

We and life

it is given

Mi Mariposas bonitas

Mi Mariposas bonitas

mis hijas bonitas

Translation in English:

My beautiful butterflies

I love you

in my heart

My beautiful butterflies

I will carry you

now and always

My beautiful butterflies

my beautiful daughters

live laugh love

Sending love to all of you♥

Light through the cracks

Not much to babble today. Just two art journal pages based on the title of this post. 'Light through the cracks is the title of Ann's art journal. I have older post about the art journal round robin @ milliande. So I had to create a page in Ann's journal; it is a small book, so I created a double page. I like the title and I recognize it in my life. My Moleskine art journal was nearby and I did a page for myself. We have those days in our life and it is a relief if and when we see light coming through the cracks. Blessings to all of you^_^

The Missing Journals Returned

It was like a reunion on the weekend,

I reunited with some old friends-

I went out and collected the parcel from Elvira.

There was Sadies beautiful Haiku journal

and Ex has done a lovely summery spread in it.

There was a page for Mary

and Anne's Light journal-
no page from Ex in Anne'sjournal

And Loren's Halloween journal
with this page from Ex.

Thank you Ex for sending them on ,

they will soon be continuing their journey.

Anne's Nature Spread for Marie

Woo-hoo,  Marie will soon be getting her journal (now it's waiting for ice to clear from the ice storm we're in so I can get to the post office)!

I used gesso mixed with acrylic for the base background,  lots of stamping for the "brush", acrylic, ink, and more stamping for the tree.

Catching up...

Wow, it's been so long since I logged on here, updates aren't coming to my blog, I thought we were extremely quiet,lol!

What great news about the journals from Elvira!! At last we get a peek and to play in them too.

Let's keep things rolling, we're all over half way now, 

hugs

Sadie's Pages in Beth's Journal, "Bygone Era" page 1

Ok, I admit it. I can't do these posts right -- EVER! For some reason I could only get the second page of Beth's journal to display. So now here's page 1 -- I hope. Enjoy Beth. We'll get through this yet! xoxo, Sadie

Nope, it didn't load again. Beth, maybe you can post it for me? If I sit here all day it won't get to the PO before it closes!!!!!! Grrrrrrr!!!!!

I'm sure now that the image is too large, but have no idea how to resize it. So if someone could walk me through the steps I'll run this thing to the PO then come back and resize and hopefully post to this site. Whew! xoxo - Sadie

Sadie's Pages for Beth's Journal "Bygone Era"

Beth, your pages are finally ready! I hope you like my interpretation. Unnfortunately, the pages did not scan very clearly. I will be off to the post office in a few minutes. Then surely by the week's end you should have your journal in your very own hands again. And it is indeed a fabulous journal. Peace, xoxo, Sadie

Lucine in Marie's art journal

It has been a very long time since I received an art journal to work in. My art journal is back home. Together with my art journal I received Marie's. Here is my contribution to Marie's beautiful book. I love your theme. Marie, I hope you like it♥

Smile, do not fear! Lucine's art journal is back home

Trine, I received my art journal. I want to thank all participants for adding nice pages to my art journal. It is a joy watching the pages. Thank you for the little gifts and I am looking forward to do my part in art journals yet to come.

Have a nice weekend,

Lucine

Sadie's Pages for Mary's Fairy Tales art journal.

Mary, I hope you like these pages I created for your Fairy Tales art journal. One is a classic, The Princess and the Pea, and the other. The Butterfly Princess, is one I made up. Enjoy! Peace, xoxo, Sadie

My "Totem Animal" Spread - the Dog

I enjoyed making this spread for Louise's journal. The only animal I could ever choose as a totem just has to be the dog. When I was young I was very scared of dogs but, when I actually had one of my own, everything changed. Since then I have always loved dogs and they speak to my heart so how could I not choose the dog. Anyway, here's the page spread I created. Hope Louise likes it!

Marie's fold out page for Mary's FAIRY TALES journal

This is what I came up with for Mary's journal...  I was thinking princess and created the page ala "Teesha Moore" LOL  ~  The quote reads "Once in awhile right in the middle of an ordinary Life, love gives us a Fairy Tale --anonymous.  Hope you like it Mary!
