Let’s Play…I Had a Plan But Didn’t Follow It

Video by Carolyn Dube showing her play in her art journal from the start including how she found inspiration for the different layers and steps from napkin collaging, stenciling, found poetry, and more!

It’s Tuesday and that means a new Let’s Play link party for all of us to share what we’ve been creating!  What play have I been up to?  I’ve been making a plan and then not following it.  The plan came about while I was checking out the all the fun stuff shared in last week’s Let’s Play link party.  A great big thank you to everyone for the inspiration!

I gathered my supplies that fit just perfectly into my plan that was crystal clear in my head.  It was going to be lots of yellow and orange, with all 4 of those birds, and just a hint of stenciling.  In the video, you’ll see that I didn’t follow that plan…but I did have fun playing!

 

Watch I had a plan for my art journal page but didn’t follow it on YouTube.

Thank you to everyone who shared their play last week!  Here is the art that inspired my art journal play.  Click on any of the images to visit their photos, blog, or Instagram.

Here are the supplies I used. Some of these links are affiliate links which means I get a small percentage. It doesn’t cost you anything extra and you are helping me keep this blog and my videos ad free! Thank you- I don’t like ads any more than you do!

    Thanks for using my journal page for inspiration and for hosting these link ups. I am having a big argument with computer elves, they keep turning off comments on my blog. I think it’s working now. I would like to place the linky button on my blog, but not sure how to do that, have to talk to my tech guy(son).
