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. 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, use the hashtag #artjournaleveryday so that we can all take a peek. Even if you're not on social media, you can see everything (from twitter, pinterest, instagram, and facebook) that uses that hashtag here.
Today I'm excited to share a fun idea that I came up with — interchangeable faces in your art journal. The pages are cut short and as you flip them, each face partially builds on the last face.
Confused?
Take a peek:
This is the first face you come across:
It opens up to create a long page:
And you can see the layers of pages that are coming:
Here is the second face:
And the third face:
And the fourth and final face:
Here's an image that makes it a little bit easier to see how the four faces relate to each other:
I love the way it turned out! Thanks for stopping by!

Very cool! I am not sure how it all works. I think for me it is better in a video to get the idea. Nevertheless, the pages are beautiful. I especially love the very decorated commit with your gel and moon markers. Very, very cool. Thanks for sharing. Great way to start my morning.!

Hello Julie! Give us insight into real time. I know it is said to “spend 10 minutes a day” journaling, but for reals: how much time do YOU spend on your journaling everyday? How long did this set of pages take, start to finish? I know every studio day is different from the last, but could you give us some approximations . . . please? So curious!

Hi Julie,
I tried yesterday to get in on this. For some reason I could not post a comment.
I love your journal here. I really like the split page building portraits. This is really cool. A bit advanced for me. At this point I only have a few things on my journal page. Nothing hand written yet but adding in designs.
Have a great time today and tomorrow in your class in Ct. Wish I could have made that class. Will be anxious to see what you post up.
Happy Saturday,
Fawna
