Art journal play ....

Image by Rian Designs

I started this page a while ago ... it actually started as a example page when I was teaching at De Craftorij in Holland (so some of you may recognise it!) I love doll images .. not sure why ... I know some people find them a bit spooky.

I added this quote - speaks for itself really.


And lots of grungy layers just because I felt like it.


And today when I looked back at my page I added even more grungy layers and splats. I happen to feel very tired today, I'm in a foul mood, and I feel mad as hell at everyone and everything (let that be a warning to anyone who lives near me haha!!), so I was in a perfect mood for grunging up a page. In fact I almost couldn't stop. If you think this doll looks spooky now, imagine her with her eyes gouged out, 'cos I nearly did it, I nearly did!


On a lighter note, thanks to you all for your wonderful comments on my last post. Ahhhh, bless you all! It's not to late to enter my give-away ... you have until 5 pm GMT on Friday.

  14. I love your page! It looks pretty happy to me, so I don't see where any of your mad came through. Now, if the eyes did get gouge out, that would be a different story. But this page is awesome!
