Behind the Scenes: Destroy this Journal

Behind The Scenes

Hey there people and Happy Wednesday to you. I hope you are having a fabulous day, wherever you may be!

So much has been happening around here recently. I launched some new Christmas items in my store (so cute!) and also some Jewellery for the very first time. My very own set of curious necklaces :)

I have also been working through two E-Courses from A Beautiful Mess. You can find out which ones I am signed up for on my About page. They have been absolutely awesome to be honest and have really made me think much more creatively. I have lots of products in the pipeline for my little store that I am super excited about, including two new series of art prints and some original works on canvas too. Stay tuned!

Now then, as the title of this post suggests, I have been working on my Destroy this Journal entry again this week (you can read part one here), and in fact it is all finished. I thought I'd share with you the results of my little journalling experiment. Enjoy!


My sparkle collection! 






Now to add some watercolours.... 




I decided to hole punch my pages and tie them together with ribbon. 



The front cover of my finished article!

I really enjoyed the process of playing with different materials this project offered to me. It's very rare that I'll just play and not worry too much about the end result. It was very cathartic that way. Also - all of my writing ideas are now in one handy journal :)

Wish me luck for the competition - I submitted my entry already!


Have a great day people!!


ps. Don't forget to come back on Friday and link up all things Etsy - stores too!

Loved this peek - it has me thinking some more about certain lines the Lord is stirring in me - I tend NOT to art journal, but I have been being prompted more and more...and this furthers those leadings!
