Art journaling is something new for me.....so fits in very well with my one word which is 'develop'........so I've decided to make a mini album following my journey to develop a healthier lifestyle.
The cover is made.....and I'm still working on the first page!!!!
I'm using a shaped chipboard album........it was painted with acrylic paint mixed with a thickening medium to give a bit of texture........sprayed with a little gold Glimmer Mist......and edged with distress ink.
The paper doll is made from a great little dolls download from artchixstudio.....the title 'Move more Eat less' was stamped.......and the sticker 'never lose your desire to grow' is a bit tongue in cheek........as some of my 'growth' is definately undesired!!!!!
I stamped over the doll with a cage.......I'm trying to escape to new and better lifestyle habits!!!!
MOVE MORE.....EAT LESS......LIVE GREENER

Absolutely amazing! This is quite different to your normal work but equally stunning. Love the colour too.
Had to LOL at you trying to 'escape to new & better lifestyle habits'! If your new book is anything to go by, you'll def succeed, it's lovely :)
What a lovely start to your art journal Jacky! I hope it keeps you motivated to live healthy. The colors are fantastic and just make me want to go play with paint!
Fabulous! Jacky, you can turn your hand to anything.
Lovely start to your art journal Jacky. I am sure you are going to love creating it as well as your new life style habits. That art doll is fab and love how you've encaged her.

This is great Jacky! I love the doll in the cage, what a brilliant idea to show how you want to break free.

Lovely start to your journal and good luck with your resolutions, I didn't make any this year!
