Layout #3, Task 1 (Monday, March 18th):
We're going to do something a little different this week: An art journal layout! Let's lay our foundation.
TASKS:
1. Choose your art journal theme. To make this easy, I would suggest creating a layout based around something that makes you happy - or several things that make you happy. Another possibility is to create a layout that helps you vent about something that bothers you, or something that is making you unhappy, stressed, or anxious at the moment. Keep in mind though, in order to be eligible for prizes over the month, you'll need to post your layout at the end of the week.
2. Let's start our background: Similar to last week, choose at least three papers, and at least 1 must be patterned. You may use more than 3 papers if you wish. Blend all of them together in some way. Blending modes are great, or you can blend them by using a paper template (Scrap Simple) - paper templates are great ways of blending more than 2 papers together! You don't have to have every paper covering the entire layout; for example, you may have one paper covering half of the page, while the other two papers are blended into the other half.
3. Find or create a page border.
Weeeeee, we're off to the races! ðĪð
