Well, only one week to a massive milestone for Julia as host of WOYWW over on The Stamping Ground. A big milestone came to me this week, when I created my first art journal page without the aid of step by step prompts, merely one word: Portal. You can see the step by step for this HERE, but I wanted to share my desk at the start of the process. I was considering using the glasses stamp from Claritystamp or the Gilded Gate Two die from Spellbinders. As you will see, I completely changed my mind on both counts.

WOYWW 399: Big Milestone

Journal52 #1: Portal
Another first for me this year; an attempt at an art journal page without a list of prompts, just a key word and image. The prompt is courtesy of Journal52 which I became aware of through Mike Deakin Art, so thanks for sharing Mike. I am not worried that it is already week 3 as I am sure that I will catch up eventually; even if I only dip in and out it will encourage me to experiment. It is fitting therefore that the first word prompt of 2017 was 'Portal', as I see this as the way in to the next leg in my art journaling journey. I am really pleased with the final result, although there were plenty of OOPS moments along the way.
