New Video! Making Stickers for my Documented Life Project Journal

Just finished a stream! You can find it here: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/time-warp-art . I had some fun making my own stickers for my Documented Life Project Journal - and setting up a new journal. The video will also be uploaded to YouTube a bit later - including links to Terri Kahrs YT and website. Enjoy!

Art Journaling Prompt Challenge

There seems to be some confusion about our art group's Art Journal Prompt Challenge so I thought I might be able to clear things up a bit by making a page here on my blog that I can also update as needs be.

Our Eileen proposed we do a weekly challenge using either the Mixed Media Inspiration Card Deck by Kiala Givehand or The Prompt List we as a group made up. The Challenge will go from Sunday to Saturday each week, 10 prompts to be used to complete a page/or whatever, photos to be posted to Twitter upon completion. Use #Eileenpromptchallenge on Twitter to allow everyone to find your page pics!

The list below is the Prompt List we, as a group, put together in Jean's Stream (MusicScrp) chatroom Monday April 14, 2014 - upon her suggestion. I will also post MY revised personal list in case you want to use that to revise your own list. (I do NOT like to heat emboss nor will I be drawing with feet! LOL!) Both lists can be updated as needed.

The lists can be printed out or copy/pasted. Random.org can be used to pick your prompt numbers or you can cut them apart and put in a container to draw from.

I think we all know who to "blame" for this latest challenge - uhhuhcoughbarb - uhhuhcoughETEE. LOL!

If anyone has anything to add to this blog post please let me know! And our thanks to Jean for the list idea!
