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 […]
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 […]
How to make your Art Journal Page Bloom
I think the most important ingredient to make your art journal page bloom, is to use yourself as fodder in them. Without you (even if you don’t think you’re in bloom yourself yet), they will be lifeless copies of what someone else have done before you. To truly make your Art Journal pages stand out […]
Art Journal Peek | Winter is Coming
The title Winter is coming is well known if you too are hooked on TV series that never end. It might be misleading here, but I’m staying indoors a lot watching GoT as my brother calls it and doing embroidery. Misleading perhaps, but at least it’s very cold around here, and white. Winter is already […]
Painting a personal color wheel in PINK
As regular readers of this blog already knows, I have a thing for pink. It is my all time favorite color, and I think it goes with everything. I have a small notebook where I collect pinks, and if I were to pick one color I couldn’t live without, pink would be it. The color […]
Art Journal Peek: Polka Dots + An Invitation
I love to hand paint repeating patterns in my art journal, especially polka dots. I love the simplicity of dots, and how expressive and fun they can really be if you give them the space to exist on their own – not just as decoration. Polka dots is such a happy pattern, and they make […]
Art Journal Challenge | Remake an Old Art Journal ...
I found an old page from my own Art Journal and did a new version of it. Then I made a third version of it. Now I challenge you to try this too, and share your process with all of us! Did you ever remake an art journal page of yours? If not, I challenge […]
Art Journal Idea: Create Journaling blocks
Sometimes it’s hard to incorporate journaling into an art journal. Personally I tend to get so excited about colors and patterns that I forget all about leaving some room for writing. That’s totally fine, if that happens, but sometimes you want to write a bit – but where? That’s when I came up with the […]
Video | Fun Beginner Ideas for Art Journalers
I found this video on YouTube and I thought I should send it to my friend who I have converted into art journalers this summer. So Christina (and mom!) this is for you especially, and anyone else who is a art journaler newbie. I think this video shows that Art Journaling can be simple, diverse […]
Link Love: Recite this and that
Recite this is a online tool where you can make a quote into a masterpiece! This is the site I used to make the poster above. Neat huh? Here is another example I made from the same e-mail message as above (it’s from a note I got from The Universe). I would like to print […]
