Art Journal Pages for the Week

The past two weeks I have been working on some new art for the note cards and bookmarks I sell on my etsy store, Designs by Pookie so its been slow going on my art website Unwavering Imagination.  I should be finished with it by early July though.

Punchinella Two ATC Swap

I recently received my returns from the ATCsforAll Punchinella Swap.  For this swap we had to incorporate punchinella on our cards; like using it as a stencil or actually placing it on the card. Punchinella in case you have never heard of it is the material left behind after sequins have been punched out of it.  It is sometimes called sequin waste.  Below is a picture of what it looks like.

Art Journal Pages for the Week

Not much this week.  There would have been one more as it is almost finished but I have a really bad headache today so I decided to finish it next week.  

I recently purchased a domain just for my art, Unwavering Imagination.  It should be all set up in the next few weeks.  Once it is that will be where I will be posting all art related blog posts. As well as a gallery of everything I create.  I will also move all the art posts on this blog to the new one but they will also remain here.  New posts however will only be on the new site.

Hope everyone has a great Memorial Day Weekend!

Art Journal Pages for the Week

Its been a couple of weeks since I have done some art journal pages.  I hurt myself pretty bad a few weeks ago and couldn't sit, stand or walk much so I was unable to do anything since I was mostly on bed rest.  Last week I started to feel a bit better so this week I was able to sit for a while and work on art journaling. It felt so good to be creative again.  Even though I am starting to feel better I have to remember not to over do it.
