One of my favourite places for visual journal inspiration is the Creative Clown blog. Today there&#8217;s a great tutorial for making background pages to journal on or to create further visual masterpieces. I hope you enjoy the free tutorial and let Zura know by leaving a comment for her. I like the wide scope of this idea. Zura invites you to use the image she has supplied, but you could use just about anything, especially if you are working to a theme. What a great sharing spirit.

I feel a bit mean not getting this news out earlier, so I&#8217;m sorry. That&#8217;s what happens when I get really busy. I tend to just scan my emails and do miss things that way. Anyway, hopefully it&#8217;s not too late to sign up for Zura&#8217;s Creative Clown Fun Art Journal e-Course, which began June 30. The cost is a mere $40 for three entire months of art journal instruction. Is that a bargain or what?  Follow the links in this entry, or contact Zura from her website; Creative Clown.

I was really surprised to learn that Zura of Creative Clown forwarded this Arte y Pico Award onto me. Yet, it pleases me no end to think she finds my blog inspiring. My main hope with this blog is to get people writing/creating journals they will use and benefit from, so I accept the award if it gets anyone doing those things. In the spirit of the award I need to name five others who I think are equally deserving, in no particular order, the people and their blogs follow. The rules are posted below, too.

The e-book is from a course developed by Zura. &#8220;Journal Prompt Cards&#8221; shows you how to make an artistic set of cards to use as journal writing prompts. Looks like something you can&#8217;t miss. I&#8217;ve already signed up and am waiting on my free e-book as I write this.

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to Zura at Creative Clown I found a really cool art journal link tonight. While reading a great list she&#8217;s made of 50 Journaling Resources I found *e&#8217;s* Mini Art Journal Challenge. The challenge is already at Week 21, but who says you have to start at the beginning of the year? Even if you don&#8217;t want to join the challenge, I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll be inspired by the mini art or even the prompts used to create them.
