Art journal, visual journal, collage journal… there are so many names for it. I don’t know which one I prefer to use, but I do enjoy to express my feelings adding images to the pages of my notebooks.
This weekend I joined a art party on Instagram, few hours creating together with other ladies from around the world. Three prompts in 2 hours.
The first prompt was Polka dots. This is my new journal, you can see the cover on the first photo (bottom right). I was using it for the first time, it’s not easy to start a new journal, the first page is always a challenge. I wanted it to be messy and full of possibilities to give me freedom to work on the other pages without boundaries.
Second prompt was about travelling. Places we want to visit. This is a difficult one, I want to go to many places from deserts to mountains. Of course, beaches are always on the list.
The third and last prompt was a quote by Oscar Wilde “Memory … is the diary that we all carry about with us.” We always want to carry good memories, things that have made us happy and loved. Tiny moments along the road.
I’ll be co-hosting next month art party, please let me know if you would like to join it.

Looks fun and relaxing! I like the reminder to create space. That’s one I need to keep more in mind — when we create more open space, we make room for good things to come into our lives.

Hi Indira, it’s pretty simple! When the prompt is posted I start to look at the magazines and see what calls my attention that is related to the prompt, generally I tear the images instead of using scissors and glue them on the page.

I was wondering how you attach your iimages to the page so it doesn’t buckle? You made three super pages, I love the last one especially.
