    oh MY but I LOVE this lens! Your art journal passion is evident as well as your creative talent, VERY impressive. I'm inspired... and YOU are blessed - with creative talent as well as by a Squid angel who sprinkled some fairy dust on this lens just now. Best 2 U!

    You know I love this lens so had to come back and offer up a Valentine's Day Blessing. :)

    Stunning! Such a beautiful lens, and so much inspiration. I love your fabric journals. Heading off to read more about them now.

    I don't journal buy my daughters do. I'm tempted to give those fabric journals a try for them as Christmas gifts. Very unique and so pretty! Congrats on your Purple Star

    Sady I don't. But I'm delighted to discover your own passion for art journals. You're really skilled and I enjoyed each of those I saw here.

    ~*~* Angel Blessed *~*~ while I still can.

    Came by to say thank you for the angel blessings you kindly left me and for being a such a good team mate on this Angel team. :) I know we've all been so busy working hard to find quality lenses that we haven't been in contact but it's been good to know you were out there.

    What an amazing lens. Beautiful work.

    I absolutely love this and appreciate the work you do. It's so up beat and fresh.

    I LOVE looking at other people's art journals but have come to love doing digital art too much to make my own. Blessed. :)

    Zentangle is new to me but I know it is something I would enjoy. I never thought of doing an art journal when I like to paint and doodle. What you are doing is great.
  • WildFacesGallery Feb 13, 2010 @ 9:37 am | delete
    This is simply brilliant. I've had a journal made by an artist friend of mine (she made the paper and bound it) and I've yet to feel comfortable about touching those pristine pages with anything less worthy. This may just be the thing.

    I love your work! Great lens!
  • KarenTBTEN Feb 3, 2010 @ 12:19 am | delete
    I've moved online with a lot of the things I used to put in journals. I still doodle offline, though -- and occasionally create things that involve tangible materials. Journals are so pretty!

    Another great lens on art. Keep them coming.Top marks

    Love this lens! Lensrolled to my Spiderwick, and congrats on your LOTD! *****
  • Marelisa Jan 3, 2010 @ 3:47 pm | delete
    I had to stop myself from running out to the store and buying all sorts of art supplies after reading this lens. :-) You know what I'm thinking of doing? Taking an old phone book and turning it into an art journal.

    Dear Bev,

    what a wonderful lens! 5*

    During last Spring I started as Editor in Chief of a new Finnish Art & Design magazine. I have also made a lens http://www.squidoo.com/Taide-Design

    also, could you please invite me to the RocketMums group?

    Wishing you a prosperous 2010!

    Beautiful lens!
  • WordCustard Nov 27, 2009 @ 9:39 am | delete
    This is a beautiful and very inspiring page - I love the way you encourage everyone to have a go at an art journal, regardless if whether they consider themselves to be artists. Thanks for sharing your creative talents with us!
  • crosscreations Nov 25, 2009 @ 11:36 pm | delete
    WOW! Your art journals are absolutely fabulous!!! I am truly impressed. They really remind me of some of the mixed media artwork I see at another site I adore, just recently made a lens about it, you MUST visit Artella Words and Art and let me know what you think. And just HOW did you create those beautiful slideshows? Saw a flickr link, I think, in ink, but it wasn't pink...I digress. One of my favs is the boy in the shoe with a tail)...celebrate boy hugs.
    5*s and kudos and A+++ :-) new fan!
  • Jewelsofawe Nov 23, 2009 @ 3:05 pm | delete
    That is a great idea and thanks for the feature! I am going to feature this lens on my journal lens. People who love journaling will want to see your lens! I am going to put the other one I went to today on it as well.
  • eclecticeducation Nov 20, 2009 @ 12:01 am | delete
    Really cool! I'm going to lensroll this to my Artist Scrapbook lens.
  • Jewelsofawe Nov 17, 2009 @ 7:40 pm | delete
    I had to come by and bless this lens! I love it!
  • d-artist Nov 13, 2009 @ 3:50 pm | delete
    love this lens!.....5* I have many art journals and am glad I kept them...I doodle a great deal on envelopes, scratch paper, etc. I cut the ones I like, keeping them in a art scrapt book.

    I LOVE your Zentangles. Really fascinating.
  • Jewelsofawe Nov 7, 2009 @ 2:10 pm | delete
    I had to book mark this lens on my computer. I want to do journaling like this. I lensrolled it to a number of my lenses as well.
  • Jewelsofawe Nov 7, 2009 @ 2:03 pm | delete
    I journal but it looks nothing like yours. I just write. This stuff is great! It reminds of SARK. How do you do those pages? I love them!

    whoops...and of course it's a perfect lensroll for Coloring Books for Adults, too :)
  • KarateKatGraphics Oct 28, 2009 @ 1:08 pm | delete
    5* and a favorite! Love the zentangles! Rolling this to Stocking Stuffers for Artistic Kids, as I think a fresh new journal would be a great stocking stuffer for an artistic adult (like you!)
  • Laniann Oct 26, 2009 @ 7:28 pm | delete
    Very nice work, I enjoyed looking through your art journal pages. 5*s
  • SpellOutloud Oct 19, 2009 @ 8:43 pm | delete
    I love your art journal! I used to do altered books and other altered art, but I don't have anywhere to leave my stuff out while working, so I've switched to digital scrapbooking. I still do like to do a paper project every now and then. I've even started an art journal---maybe I'll pull it out and start working on it again.
  • Ladydove62 Oct 10, 2009 @ 7:22 pm | delete
    This is an exquisite lens. Your journal pages are tantalizing and captivating, your Zentagles are gorgeous. I would love to see your " Chosen Horse". Fabulous presentation of your work. 5* Favorite.

    Yes, I journal. But mostly with words. Your pages are gorgeous!!

    Another beautiful lens. What a wonderful mother and teacher you are.

    Don't forget to add it to the Unit Studies: Fun, Creative Hands-On Leaning Group.
