Art Journal Every Day: Rainbow Flag Book

AJEDHeader2020

If you're new to Art Journal Every Day, the concept is simple: It's a commitment to take ten minutes each day to do something in your art journal.  No need to finish anything or even like it.  It's about making the time to nourish your creativity every day!  If you have the time to flip through your phone, you have the time to Art Journal Every Day.  If you'd like to share what you make, use the hashtag #artjournaleveryday so that we can all take a peek.  You can find new Art Journal Every Day posts here on the blog most Fridays.  The archives go back to the first Art Journal Every Day post in 2010.

I loooooved Sarah's Flag Book Tutorial video and I knew that I had to make one of my own.  So, I gelatin printed a bunch of papers using stencils I made with my ScanNCut and put together this book:

I covered the back side of each of my flags with leftover scraps.  Because you see the backs of the papers as you flip through the books, I didn't want to leave them naked.  You can see a bit of what it looks when you see the backs in these photos:

I loved putting this project together. It's definitely not my last flag book!

Thanks for stopping by!

P.S. You can learn to make amazing stencils with your ScanNCut in my online class: ScanNCut: Design and Cut Amazing Stencils!

  • This construction looks a bit different to the ones I made ages ago, but you (and sarah)have inspired me to make another one using the stamps and stencils of natural things I have made this year!
