artJOURNALING daily: instagram roundup

I've been having fun posting #artJOURNALINGdaily prompts on Instagram everyday. In case you haven't been able to follow, I'm sharing a round up of some of the creative prompts here on my blog with a detailed explanation of the artwork. The prompts range from painting, color palettes, handmade stamps, photography, doodling and creative exploration. 

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>{above image} #artjournalingdaily prompt: story. 
-my story...
-tell a story
-->her story
---a funny story
-->a make believe story
--today's story 
--->write a story in your journal.
The page above was created on Strathmore 400 series Mixed Media paper. I attached various chevron papers, rub-ons & washi tape by Hambly Studios. Cut a printed inkjet photo of my artwork, then free motion stitched flowers and doodles using my Janome sewing machine. The word story is stitched onto a piece of drill cloth fabric.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>#artjournalingdaily prompt: white correction pen
-experiment with painting on fabric. add a piece of fabric to your journal by gluing it with Collage Pauge. my FAVE fabric to paint is drill cloth or unbleached muslin works nice too.
-this piece reads...BE FREE..take chances. write about something you've taken a chance doing. what was the outcome? how did you feel?
-scrape paint over fabric with an old hotel room key/gift card
-the red marks were created by stamping with the bottom of paint bottle
-use the edge of a plastic hotel room key/gift card, dip it in paint then press onto surface to create lines
-add white over dry paint
-draw and write with a white correction pen.
-TIP: use the correction pen over painted fabric the lines will show better.
