Happy Sunday!
Today’s post is all about channeling your inner artist and put
all your free time to use . If you recall I previously did a post “5 AWESOME ways to fill empty notebooks” and
today’s post is just elaborate extract of the same . Art journals are a very
modern and rustic way to display not only your art but stuff like your poetry
or quotes too . Me and “@_theartisticside” collaborated to make this beautiful page . Keep
reading to know how you can make one of your own
You’ll need :
1.
A notebook . ( You don’t necessarily need an art
journal )
2.
Glue
3.
Scissors
4.
Paint , sketch pen (or any art supply , we used
water color )
5.
Magazines , newspaper .
Let’s go !
1. Plan out what color palette you want to play with.
It always gives a better visual if you have a three color scheme. As I love pastels
I went with pink, grey and blue.
2. Allot one sheet to the quote/poem and the other
for an abstract collage .
3.
Paint to make the back ground for your text . A
beautiful background is always a great start .

4.
Flip through magazines, newspapers and any picture
filled sheet to find images or text matching your color scheme.
5 . Cut them out and place them on the page, playing
with whatever feels right .
6.
Paste the collage bits in place .
7 .
Write down your poem / quote directly or on a separate
paper and secure.
8.
VOILA , you
have a master piece ! This hardly takes half an hour to make and is such a fun
activity .

Until next time
Polý agape (lots of love) and stay cheerful :)
