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 .






Add caption





   
          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
 :)
