I created this first page early on in the week. The collage on the left half of the page is inspired by the collage style of <a href="http://essieruth.com/">Essie</a>. She makes some really neat journal pages using little paper strips. I cut up watercolor paper for this technique.</div>

I also created this second spread this week, although I don't love it. The photo is one I took in my backyard at Christmas (we got snow on Christmas! yay!),  but I don't love that I scraped paint on to the top of it. Oh well.<br/>

I've got 2 pages from my art journal to share with y'all this week. This first one I love. I created a collage of galaxy images (from NatGeo magazines) for the night sky, and used a photo of Mount Rainier (that I photographed on one of my hikes) below the night sky. </div>

I finished off the page with some painted on trees in the foreground and a quote from John Muir. He has the best nature quotes.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><br/></i></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Today's blog post is a little bit bittersweet, as I will no longer be a part of the Get Messy creative team in 2018. I've really enjoyed my time on the creative team, and I've gotten to know so many awesome art journalers throughout the past year.</i></span><br/>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br/></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Our blog hop today is all about sharing the art journal love and support for our fellow 2017 creative team members. We're each doing a post about another member of the team. Today I'm taking <a href="http://anrodgers.blogspot.com/">Ashley</a> as my inspiration!</span><br/>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Ashley is such a lovely and talented artist. I always really enjoy seeing her work because she can take any technique and use it in her own style, which is very bright and clean. I love that even if she's doing a "messy" medium, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BbMs8wCHSNI/?taken-by=sweetashleyann">such as paints</a>, her work always looks good. </span><br/>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br/></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Isn't her artwork so beautiful: </span><br/>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br/></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br/></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br/></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I created this page in my Season of Nature journal inspired by Ashley and her happy style:</span><br/>

<br/>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">When I think of Ashley I immediately think of a lot of white and neutral colors combined with black, gold, and soft pinks. So I used those colors on my page, making it my own by creating galaxy flowers!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br/>
You can find Ashley online here: <a href="http://anrodgers.blogspot.com/">Blog</a>, Instagram. She is so talented, I would definitely recommend taking a peek at her work!<br/>

I painted this Aurora girl in my sketchbook earlier in the week and I wanted to include her here in my nature journal to dedicate a page to the Aurora Borealis, which I really want to see.<br/>

<a href="http://misty.granades.com/blog/">Misty</a> posted a tutorial this week about using browns and earth tones, so this next page is inspired by that.<br/>

And my next page for the week is also pretty simple. A photograph, some oil pastel scribbles and a reminder to listen.<br/>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Have you been art journaling much lately? After my rough week last week I took the time to do more journaling and just things that make me happy this week.</div>

Merry Christmas everyone!</div>
