Jump 4 Joy Junk Journal Spread


What a fun junk journal spread that didn't start that way. A little background on this piece...in July, I led a painting event with our local CSEA Chapter that was for both adults and kids. Of course, my DIL and two older granddaughters attended. After that, my 6-year-old granddaughter was so excited about watching me lead the class that she wanted to paint another frog when we were home.


I've been recycling our brown paper grocery bags and packing materials as paint canvases when we paint at home so that's where they started. Once my pink frog was complete, I thought what am I going to do with this now?



Easy answer...my junk journal! So this video shows how I added it to the journal and how I added more marks and a title to it. I talk about how to paint the frog so watch to the end for that quick tutorial. I love how it covers two pages that have to be opened to reveal the entire frog. It just JUMPS out at you!


I hope you enjoy it! As always, thanks for watching. 


Oh, and a question??? What do you do with your clogged ink sprays? I'm thinking I can soak the nozzle in hot water. What do you think? Have you tried this before?

Splatter D Canvas


Last month I took my niece and nephew to a splatter room and we made really cool canvases with our initial.

We'll, I decided to dress mine up a little. Honestly, I'm not sure if it was an improvement but it was fun doing some doodles and I enjoyed the process. 

I filmed a little different video today. Just a peek into my set up prior to actually filming. I hope you enjoy it and remember...if you don't like it, change it!

Because this is how it ended up!

Watermelon Canvas Painting


I don't know if you know but I host painting events at my home and for other people/organizations. I try to play around with new ideas so I have projects ready to show before the events happen. With that in mind, I tried to paint a watermelon with a bird but if you watch my newest YT video you can see all the changes that happened before it was all done.


What do you think? Do you like the final painting?

I think it's fun and whimsical and love it!
