The Poop Pages?

 This is one of my very most personal favorite crafty materials. http://www.poopoopaper.com/ The paper is beautiful and I love the texture of it.  (poop stuff ) hee hee . But seriously, it is really nice paper.It's "green" and makes for great journals. The paper does have like grass and stuff kinda fused into it ,or whatever that particular animal fancied eating I guess :) It comes in different colors too.

   

This is one of my journals , made from elephant poo. I added some fabric to it and I like it even more now that It's kinda dangly.I stole that idea from Suzi Blu .She is a pretty awesome artist, super crafty and hilarious.I totally adore her and all the stuff she does, even though I think she maybe eats to many space cakes ?

   

  Wha ,more Neko Case lyrics ? Yes, another woman I adore.

The best thing about an art journal , or any kind of journal for that matter is, that it is all for YOU. You can put anything in it , ANYTHING and nobody has to see it . Unlike blogging, I think there is freedom in that, knowing that you don't have to show anyone . It's your secret place , just have fun with it.You don't have to "poo poo" everything you do (no pun intended) worrying what people will think of it when they see it .Is it good enough? am I nuts? Who cares. Be you.


                           

 


  Lyrics, Pictures, Paintings, Stickers, Stuff you find, Poems,Drawings,Magazine Cutouts,all good stuff! This page is actually a dried flower from my bouquet when I was my best friends Maid of Honor , or Matron . I thought it looked like a little tree.

           


This is a real Owl feather. I'm not happy about the way I found it though :( We actually hit one with   our car one night while on a road trip. He just swooped right down out of nowhere and when we stopped, the poor little guy was stuck in our grill.Thank goodness he was dead and not suffering. He was Beautiful and   just a little baby too. So sorry Mr.Owl ! :(

 

 

Sometimes scribbling like a little kid and seeing what happens is fun. Pastels are great for that.


                                                                     

       

Scribbling with Microns and paint , also fun :)

 

Bored? Make a paper collage with pretty paper you like , no biggie.

 

Take the scrap book route.I think there is a fine line between my scrapbooks and my journals.Put a picture of something that makes you happy in there.This is me and my mom when I was little, I was glad to have a great visit with her after it had been a long time.We haven't really been close throughout my life, so I wanted to keep that moment.I grew up eating some amazing German bread from that place.We went there together and bought some while I was back home.It was a good day :)

Animals wearing suits,never a fail.

Sometimes I like to be a smart ass about things that piss me off.
