If you're new to Art Journal Every Day, there is a short introduction here. All of the previous posts can be found archived here. There is a flickr group for sharing right here. Remember, it's just ten minutes of nourishing your creative self every day! No need to finish anything or even like it. If you've done some art journaling this week and you've blogged about it, or put it on flickr, please leave a link in the linky list at the end of this post. Thanks!
Do you recall the journal that I made for Book Club in June? I've been loving exploring the non-blank pages. It's a bit of a mental shift in art journaling for me, but I'm having a lot of fun! Well, I couldn't help myself. I made two more!

They're filled with non-blank pages for me to play with:
Next time you're looking around for a new journal, why not make one yourself?
Here is this week's linky list:
Thanks for stopping by!

Books are so much more fun to play with! So many altering possibilities, way less boring than a empty sketchbook. 🙂 Thanks for sharing!

I made a small 3 ring one once with all kinds of junked papers (even mad libs) like you, and I loved it – used it as a gratitude journal. Yours is so beautifully bound.

These are so cool! I’m thinking about making a journal filled with those pages that you rip out from some of the Stampington & Co. publications. I’ve been saving them like forever. Not sure how paint or other media will take to the smooth and slightly shiny pages, but it seems like they’d be fun to play with. I’d make the pages different sizes but probably no larger than 5×7. That’s on my long project “to-do” list….

Very cool journals! I love the “non-blank” pages! A great way to use up all that vintage ephemera and patterned paper I’ve stockpiled!

Just read your article in last month’s CPS magazine on blogging. You had great advice in a well written piece. Really enjoyed it and I’m going to take a hard look at my blogs to see if I need to revamp.
