Welcome, everyone! Wow and welcome to November!! It’s Shari Carroll here with an art journal feature where I’m working in the Dina Wakley white 6×6 journal where I’ve taken my inspiration from a page in Dina’s Media Collage Collective book.
I’ve tried to channel my inner Dina by using her paints to block out a center area of the journal pages. By adding water to them, they act much like watercolors but are permanent.
Once everything was dry, I used stencils, paste, and some simple collaging. If you haven’t tried art journaling yet, this type of page is a great way to start.

Love this! Is the saying around the main design from the collage books? I am just starting to art journal and I really like it, I find it is relaxing. Do you have more videos? Also did you use collage medium on the middle of the page and what did you use to lighten up the one color.
Once again beautiful page.
Thanks for sharing

Hi Becky, yes, I used gel medium to cover the center strings. I used water to lighten the paint. The writing around the edge is my own printing. You can search Shari Carroll on this blog and you’ll find plenty of examples of my work. There’s always a video! Thanks!!
I have never art journaled before, but it looks like a lot of fun! Thanks for the inspiration! The layout turned out really cool! I love the message around the edges also, it’s so important and so true! We are enough!
These pages are an interesting process to get to the final product. How do you know which mediums to use to get those results? Like the creative process. Thank you.

Each match your play on Dota 2 is unique. What makes this unique? First, the variety of heroes to play. Second, you get different opponent teams and https://dota2-bets.net/ random teammates. Third, the outcome of the game depends not only on you but on your teammates and the rival team. You never predict the flow of the game and what each player is capable of, which makes Dota 2 truly exciting.
I’ve never done an art journal before, but it appears to be a lot of fun! Thank you for the motivation! The design turned out fantastically! Also, I really like the message around the margins; it’s really vital and accurate! We are sufficient!
I’ve never tried making an art notebook before, but it looks like a lot of fun! Thank you for energizing me! The design came out beautifully! I also enjoy the statement in the margins; it’s very important and precise!
