As I told you yesterday, I don't have much time to dedicate to scrapbooking or working with all my pretty papers and things at the moment. And this is why I am especially grateful and happy that I joined the Get Messy family! When you join the group you committ to creating and sharing at least two art journal pages each week. And because I don't want to let down the other girls in the group and because the whole idea of it is to be accountable for it, I have to take some time to get messy!! It depends from week to week how elaborate and time-consuming my pages are. It doesn't matter if it took me five minutes to make them or an hour, the time spent on creating these pages is time I invest in myself, in my mental health, my sanity ;) For as long as I sit on these pages, everything else gets pushed aside and I concentrate only on creating.
These pages might be quite simple, but they are loaded with so much meaning for me.
Get Messy is an art journal challenge where a gang of crafty vixens are
sharing art journal pages we have created to practise our skills and
push past our creative limits with hopes to inspire. We share our pages
without restraint every week, and once a month we create around a prompt. Go check out these
crazy talented ladies who are creating pages who each have a unique
perspective and style. We will be sharing our work around social media
so follow the hashtag #getmessyartjournal.
