Happy Leap Day! My new art journal is an altered book again. This one is a little smaller than my previous very big and chunky Cut and Paste Journal. I thrifted this book a few years ago, and until now it has just been sitting in my stash of books to cut up or use […]

ART JOURNALING is one of my favorite things to do. I fill my volumes with collage, paint, writing, ideas and experiments.
Happiness on a Page
Every time you state what you want or believe, you’re the first to hear it. It’s a message to both you and others about what you think is possible. Don’t put a ceiling on yourself. Oprah Winfrey I create pages with messages I myself need to hear. They might not be one hundred percent true, […]
The Cut and Paste Journal
Art Journaling in altered coffee table books is one of my favorite things to do. I love that they present me with loads of space for painting, gluing and expressing myself. I have filled many of these volumes over the years – and latest in the row is this chunky, beautiful Art Journal. It is […]
Art Journaling Friday
Hello my Dear one, It is Friday the 14th of February and Valentine’s Day. I don’t care much about buying gifts for this holiday, instead I try to make it something of my own, a lovely day if nothing else. And what could be better than a day of Art Journaling? Art Journal Fridays could […]
Working in multiple Art Journal volumes
Are you working in many Art Journals at the same time? Maybe too many to keep track of? I know the feeling. When I started with art journaling many years ago, I always worked in just one, big Art Journal at a time – from start to finish. It helped keep me focused and it […]
Process Video: Filling pages in a Junk Journal
I have started working in the pretty journal that I showed you in my last video. Yay! Finally, right? This is an Art Journal/Junk Journal that I bound together a few years ago. I will try to “fill it up” before the end of the year, but it might take a bit longer than that. […]
Junk Journal Video: Flip through
Today I want to share a Junk Journal that I bound a while ago, but never started using at the time. Flipping through its pages I think you’ll get a pretty good idea what you yourself could save and include in a mixed paper journal if you want to make one for yourself. So take […]
Roses & Gold Washi Tape
Another collage time video! Yay! This time with a lot of rose illustrations. Roses are always in fashion around here, so I keep cutting them out and keeping rose fodder and inspiration around. I think I should call this Traveler’s Notebook Art Journal “Collage time with iHanna” since that is the name of the video […]

ICAD – irresistible challenge and it’s doable too
ICAD could stand for irresistible challenge, right? At least it seams that that’s what it is to me. Irresistible. And quite doable too. Those of us who has tried it, can not resist being pulled back in and doing it year after year. But ICAD stands for “index card a day”. It’s an art challenge […]
Creating a new Traveler’s Notebook Art Journal
I am all over the place with Art Journaling. Or not at all, I’m not sure. I am not really working consistently in the different books I have going at the moment, so I should concentrate on just one or two I guess… Maybe I need to finish those ongoing art journals or simply be […]
Experimental Portraits | Time-lapse Video
Make action a habit. Dont wait until things are just right. There is never a perfect time to begin. There is only now. Expect that things will be difficult. Know that there will be setbacks. Remember how strong you are. Expect to succeed anyway. When you take action fear fades and confidence rises. Tess Marshall […]
