I just had to share the fantastic entry on the Cre8it Art Blog by Jessica Wesolek. Jessica goes into the silly reasons we make for not keeping an art journal. It’s really quite inspiring. I think you will gain something from reading the entry. Don’t forget to check out the art journal course she is promoting, too: Love This Journal: Become an Art Journaling Diva in 21 Days. Just reading the page about the course makes you want to pull out your art journal.

Love the art journal idea. I used to, used to do the art thing, and yes, it took a long time to create. However, an art journal with small stuff sounds doable. Thanks!
how fun!
Wooo Hooo Make me a winner!
Thanks for the contest!
great stuff, please enter me
I think art journals are a lot of fun with the kids. They can be work though and sometimes it is difficult to carry through with commitment. So many ways to do it though and let those creative juices flow!
Must.Journal.More.
I’ve seen a few from friends kids. I didn’t really even think much about them but now I’m a bit more interested.
Your kids will thank you for journaling. I love my mom’s old scrapbooks. Leave something like that for your kids.
Please enter me into the contest. Thanks!
So many entries, cool. I’ll draw this one and post the winner for Saturday.
It’s always easier to find excuses for not (art) journaling… “don’t have time” “don’t know what to talk about” “don’t have an art space on my own” and so on
