'Add a Food Box' DLP Week 16

Hi guys!
This week I got back into my Documented Life planner to do the week 16 challenge, 'Add a food box'. I had a few empty packages left from Easter candy and one from a box of granola. I showed all three in the video, but only ended up using two of them.
 
 
This page was fun to do, I had no idea what I was going to do when I started

Art Journal Process #2

Hi Guys!
My most recent art journal page was done in my journal that is almost full. There is not much left in it but some premade backgrounds. This page started out as scraps that I had pulled off of my table and glued down, probably almost a year ago. It has sat, waiting, for me to do something with it. Here is what I came up with!

Week 12 of The Documented Life Project and Week 11 of Journal 52 Combined

Hi Guys!
 
This week I was inspired by 2 art journal prompts, one from the Documented Life 'Cut up a magazine - add!'  and the other from Journal 52 'Stars'. I had a few old People and Glamour magazines that a friend had given me, so I decided to use those for the magazine cut ups. Here is my single page for the Documented Life.



 And here is the double page spread for Journal 52.

Week 11 of The Documented Life Project - Add a Bird

Hi guys!
 
How has your week been? I feel like I have been running like crazy and not getting much done. I worked on week 11 almost a week ago and am just getting it up now. Sorry! At least I am not behind yet! I went into this week thinking 'Keep it simple, try not to use too many products and textures.'. I feel like I did alright at that! Let me know what you think.
 
 
I had decided before I went into this page that I would do a teal background and that I wanted a black

Hey guys!
 
Today I wanted to share with you a project I was working on for displaying in our local scrapbook store. I just bought a bunch of the new Julie Nutting doll stamps by Prima and I was wanting to make a canvas with one. Here is what I came up with.
