inspiration monday


happy new year, bloggy sweeties!!
my first project of 2013 is to finish
a project from last year.....my elvie journal!







so, first......all those miscellaneous art supplies i love so much
 fit perfectly on that last blank page.....







then.....how about some inspiration on that little flap in 
the front of the journal.....







and a quick list of materials on the back flap
(because i'll forget if i don't write it down, guaranteed!).







now all that's left to finish is the back cover, so i'm off to get busy!
but before i go, here's a little resolution i plan to follow this year.....heeheehee  :))




{this artwork was created in my elvie journal using pitt artist pens,
derwent inktense pencils, koi watercolor, white uniball signo pen, 4B pencil}

So glad your back you were missed. Have you ever considered putting together a coffe table book of your journal pages? I would be the first to purchase one!

Thank you for all your inspiration!
