Introduction to Art Journaling

FlowerCircles
Art Journaling is a fun and relaxing way to mix creative expression with memory keeping. Many art journaling techniques can be used in card making, scrapbooking, mixed media artwork, and even fiber art. In this introduction to the process of art journaling we’ll cover all the basics from supplies to techniques. You’ll leave with at least one completed page and inspiration and know how to help you keep creating for months to come!

Thanks for stopping by!
