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;">
<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>

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/>

It's been a little bit of a rough week for me. One of my guinea pigs has been having dental problems and didn't make it, so I've been too sad to do much creative work.<br/>

I hope your week has been better. :)<br/>

Earlier this Fall I won an instagram giveaway that included a couple of these <a href="http://www.nomadnotebooks.com/product/repurposed-xl">Repurposed XL Nomad Notebooks</a>.  These notebooks are filled with different types of papers: white, kraft, cream, graph, tracing and recycled newspaper, which I think is really cool and make for great journal backgrounds.</div>

Get Messy - Creating a Junk Journal

<br/>
Hey Y’all! Last week Get Messy Art Journal launched their newest class! It’s called Pieces, It’s by Johanna Clough, and it's all about creating and using Junk Journals!<br/>
<br/>
Even though I art journal all of the time, I've never made a specific "junk journal" so this was really fun to try.<br/>
<br/>
In the course, Johanna shares a super easy binding technique (no sewing involved!), which is what I used to bind this journal.<br/>

Here is a peek at the rest of my journal. As I was binding it, I included lots of mixed papers, such as book pages, patterned scrapbook paper, magazine images, maps, vellum, etc.<br/>
