Monthly Art Journaling Inspiration and Tips

January 7, 2024 by Heather Holbrook

 

Monthly Art Journaling Inspiration and TipsDid you make a New Years resolution to be more creative this year? One way is to work on monthly (or even weekly if you’re ambitious) projects so you know you’ll at least get your supplies out once a month and hopefully become inspired to create even more throughout the year.

Monthly Art Journaling Inspiration and Tips

Stampington and Company has posted a wonderful article by Dana Tatar sharing her ongoing Art Journaling project that she creates pages for a few times a month. She creates a collage, adds hand written journaling with thoughts, feelings and goings on and the date on each of her pages. But you could use photos for scrapbooking and memory keeping, add lots of journaling for more of a diary and be sure to try other paper crafting techniques and styles you’d like to explore. In her article she include photos of lots of her personal pages and mini albums along with helpful tips and tricks for Art Journaling.

80’s Inspired Boombox Shaped Mini Album

I was a teen in the 80’s so this totally rad Boombox shaped mini album from Traci really speaks to me! She created a rectangle shaped black acrylic album with rounded corners, adding buttons and a handle on the top with a cover decorated to look like a real boombox with speakers, a tape deck, buttons and more. She used the Totally 80’s collection of products from Simple Stories that has lots of bright pink and teal colors with cool 80’s inspired patterns like black and white check and colorful graphics. There’s also load of fun embellishments like a Walkman, high top sneakers, retro TV, camera, hair spray can and more. 

I had huge hair in the 80’s and am embarrassed to admit how much Aquanet hair spray I used!

Traci has included her totally tubular signature flaps and pockets in the album too for some radical interactive elements too.

Visit the Artsy Album blog to learn more about this bodacious mini album project.
