"Up North" Altered Book Page

This is one of my latest pages. I really like it.We purchased some property on a lake up North and this page reminds me of that spot. Just brings a smile to my face.

And here is a favorite ornament. I purchased this ornament through a missionary organization that helps to provide employment for women in Thailand so that they can provide for their families and stay out of prostitution. I love that it is a symbol for peace.

Guest Blogger Today at Balzer Designs

Today I am so thankful to be featured on Julie Fei-Fan Balzer's blog as a guest blogger talking about altering my books and art journaling. I was just floored to even be asked. She is such a fabulous artist, so creative and full of energy. If you have been reading my blog for a while, you know that she is one of my art heroes! You can find the post here: Art Journaling Every Day - Altering a Book 

Here is the finished page that I submitted:

The Elf King

She hosts a monthly Art Journal Every Day blog party where people post there art journal pages. It is a great treat to visit the blogs to see all the creativity out there. Be sure to visit Julie's blog and get inspired!

I am also linking up with Beverly for Pink Saturday over at How Sweet the Sound. Stop over there and enjoy all the pink posts this weekend.

New Altered Book, Art Journal Page - Pink Saturday

I did an art page that was actually a mock-up for my round robin altered book exchange. This one I actually did while we were on our sail boat. It was interesting to see what you can accomplish with a few supplies in a very small space. It actually was a lot of fun. I will be linking up with Beverly over at How Sweet the Sound again for Pink Saturday. Please take a few minutes and visit her and see all the other wonderful pink posts for today.

I will also be sharing this page over at Art Journal Every Day which is hosted by Julie Fei-Fan Balzer over at Balzer Designs. This keeps me going and working on my journals, if not every day, at least regularly. There are lots of links for art journaling for the month of August that will impress and inspire you. I love her quirky style and honest posts. You will definitely be blessed by visiting her blog. I'm here to tell you, it is really awesome.
