I just love starting a new journal! It feels like a new adventure is just beginning! This is a journal I altered awhile ago for a Next Step Challenge, (I posted it then too) but I haven't done anything with it until now. It will be my December Art Journal. Here's the cover...
and here's my Prompt-A-Day entry for December 9:
For the inside pages, I glued about five pages together at a time (with glue stick) to make them about the thickness of cardstock. I removed pages randomly throughout, to adjust for the thickness of the finished entries. It's hard to see here, but the painted backgrounds are transparent enough to still see the print coming through, and I love that!
I discovered a new challenge blog tonight called Scrap A Tale, and the amazingly talented Kimberly Garafalo is the guest designer this month. She's got a really fun challenge posted, with a prize full of Sassafras goodness! Check it out here!
That's it for today, but I will be back tomorrow for another update. Thanks so much for visiting!

I love your new journal! :) It's very inspiring, Michelle!
love the page and your journal cover!!!
I remember that journal cover (did my "leonard Cohen cover" for the same challenge over at the next step) It's gorgeous! I love the effect of the text shimmering through... I hope your new journal will be filled with lots of goodness and amazing pages too (but I don't have worries about that at all!) Have a great weekend Michelle!

Hi Michelle..I love your new old book cover. I'm still doing Prompt A day but had to be away from my studio for a while. I read your post about painting all the pages ahead of time and had a V8 moment! Duh! Why didn't I think of that???So I have all my pages painted now and can get back on track. Always enjoy your blog. TFS so much goodness!
