Believe it or not, I am almost done with the journal started for sweet Leslie's online course, Mind. Body. Soul. Good thing too, as the prompts ended about two weeks ago. (sigh). . . .
Below are shots of the last journal spread for Anxiously Engaged, followed by the first and last pages of the book:
"Oh the places we will go"
(Vertical spread)
Vintage music, vintage stamps, Stampington art papers (bike) and personal photo
Opening page / Table of contents:
"Contents"
Featuring all of Leslie's prompts
Carefully selected papers hint at what's to come
Back / final page:
"Put on a happy smile"
Swarovski crystals, rub-ons and paint chip
There you have it. Only one thing left to complete: the cover! Oh, and the story behind the book as a whole. On a personal note, when I started the course, I had no idea what or where I would be when I ended it. I don't mean to sound cryptic, I will finish the cover, put it all back together, and share the story in it's entirety in my next post for Paint Party Friday.
See you then,
Kristin xo

These pages are all beautiful. I look forward to hearing the story behind all this beautiful and thoughtful work.
Like Pauline I'd really love to hold this in my hands and see it up close and personal. See all those layers and details 'for real'. I think I'd find it hard to hand back though ;)
Seriously, your work is amazing and totally inspiring.... lovely to see Kendra making an 'appearance' too

I think it's wonderful how art will take you on a journey if you let it--and now you know the story behind it--awesome!
But you DO sound cryptic lol! I can't wait to hear what's up...my mind is racing. The pages are BEAUTIFUL and colourful as always! I just love your style. And the bit of added sparkle...well, it just has to be done, right?!
Fantastic! I especially like the first page with the music background and the bike. All the details makes such a meaningful "whole".
PS: I love that you have (and adore) paint under your fingernails. That makes two of us!:-)
So much good stuff....sparklies, poignant lessons, words to ponder, gorgeous colors....love it!
