Procrastinating again ....

Image from an earlier journal page by me!

Today I am supposed to be packing, ready to go and teach at De Craftorij in the Netherlands woop woop!! Packing is not my favourite thing however, and I have discovered I have a rather fabulous talent for procrastinating. It's hard to pack art supplies because every time you pick something up you just have to try it and have a little play. I have made slow progress on the packing front today. I have however, made a couple more journal backgrounds in my mini moleskine and I will be able to doodle on these on route!!

The page above uses an image by me from an earlier journal page, and I made the background with a Gelli Arts plate. It is a BIG plate and this is a small journal but I managed!

Sometimes, occasionally, I make double page spreads in my journal, but I really really like the eclectic look of two different pages side-by-side:

  14. Delicious backgrounds and pages Kate! I can see how you end up just having to play a bit when packing things-I do the same when I'm getting things together for an art date with a friend-it's in an artist's blood I think :)
