First I was playing with some old artwork but nothing was suitable enough for my new cover. It looked like there was constantly missing something: pieces of my collages that didn't fit in the frame for the cover-design.<br />
So I decided to design a new cover! I enlarged the sizes of my iPhone and created a collage. So the original collage is about 4 or 5 times bigger than my phone.<br />
I scanned the collage and uploaded it to the website where I wanted to order my hardcase cover.<br />
This is the original collage:<br />

I'm not completely satisfied but that is ok:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl1TTOeHJZyP1AY4KUXhu73nIxu8FzBIK_S7pTIZLTXZuGEaZn8v29AiT-Lsr4lD8VzLzuJRMNshw0Iq-G89rvH6iPEyQG_q0nGDqYrvylrAna-yHCXpKdFr8969JayRlRKatTLv2cqxw/s1600/dont+lose+faith+www.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl1TTOeHJZyP1AY4KUXhu73nIxu8FzBIK_S7pTIZLTXZuGEaZn8v29AiT-Lsr4lD8VzLzuJRMNshw0Iq-G89rvH6iPEyQG_q0nGDqYrvylrAna-yHCXpKdFr8969JayRlRKatTLv2cqxw/s1600/dont+lose+faith+www.jpg" height="400" width="317" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Don't lose faith...sometimes what looks like a disappointment</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">is simply meant to get you in position for greatness.</span></div>
<br />
And another one...I needed some color again...:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Be ok with not knowing for sure what might come next, </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">but know that whatever it is you will be ok.</span></div>
<br />
Only two more empty pages in this journal left....<br />

First I challenged myself to use <u>only black and white (and grey) pictures </u>in my collage, because I ALWAYS use as much color as possible. The second challenge was to create<u> a collage that didn't mean anything</u>...so no new creatures or girls with big heads, just a collection of cutouts glued on paper.<br />
Because I am working in a selfmade journal (à la Teesha of course) in which I painted all the pages before even working in it...I allowed myself to use a colored background...plain blue acrylic paint as we speak :-)<br />
This is what happened:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Journaling (in dutch): </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">Vertrouw op je eigen kracht. Open je deuren en geniet.</span></i></div>
<br />
I like it!!! Yeah! So...lesson learned: I want more of this!!<br />
<br />
The second page I'm showing you is about a little flaw in my character..haha..I like to be 'a little' stubborn now and then...I like to bend the rules sometimes or let's say: stretch my boundaries!<br />
The page isn't upside down by the way...so don't stretch your neck too far...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">I just have a personality you can't handle!</span></i></div>
<br />
And the third page is one I finally finished. The collage was in my journal for months now...I just never felt working on it. I probably had great plans when I made this collage but somehow..it didn't work out like I wanted to.<br />
This is what it looked like:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Last week I wanted to finish it because it is one of the last pages in this journal...and I just couldn't accept the fact that there is an unfinished page in my journal...<br />
By the way. that is also what I like most about these Teesha Moore-bound journals and why I keep coming back to them: the journals have just the right size and the right number of pages. It is possible and even simple to finish a complete journal! (I have lots of journals with only a few pages in it and the rest of the pages are empty, simply because there are too many pages in it, or after a few pages I want another size...)<br />
Anyway, this is what happened after I added some shadow with an Inktense pencil, added the journaling and some doodling with colored markers.<br />
<br />

It is all about being creative and not about the results! Although I like what came out of my hands....<br />

Simple collage, combined with text on a background of Neocolors and stamps:<br />

Collage on a background of scrapbookpaper, cut to A4 size.<br />
I would have loved to credit the designer of the scrapbookpaper, but I threw away the strips with their name on it...However, their papers make a quick and easy backgroud!<br />
I just added the cutout of the woman and the text (in red). I made some blue dots too.<br />

I just finished my first week....Instead of working 16 hours a week (divided in cleaning and being a mailwoman) I now work for 24 hours a week at the office. So I'm feeling good!!! And tired....:-)<br />
I even managed to squeeze in some time for art journaling:<br />

She released her workshop on her YouTube channel and I loved it!!<br />
She showed the difference between inkjetprinted and laserprinted pictures and how she uses reproduced images and backgrounds from her own artwork.<br />
It was just what I needed to get me started in my art journal again!<br />
<br />
First I created some quick collagesheet with parts of my own artwork. Like this:<br />

<br />
I had these printed on a laserprinter, together with some previously made backgrounds, which I scanned before I collaged my images.<br />
I wanted to start a new journal in which I would write down my favourite quotes, so I grabbed a thin Moleskine A5 sized journal (cahier) and started working...<br />
I collaged pieces of the printed backgrounds in my journal. I tried all the background techniques Terri showed in her video's, with gesso, neocolors, acrylic paint etc. I noticed that the one with gesso, water and neocolors got me the best results. On top of these backgrounds I collaged my printed images. I also used some clothing labels as flaps on my pages to create some secret journaling spots. I collaged these flaps with pieces of my printed papers too.<br />

The butterfly wings on this last page come from a great book I found at a big booksale. The book was all about butterflies with lots of images, perfect for my collages. So be prepared for some more butterfly inspired pages!<br />

Last November I felt like painting faces and girls. I bought an XL-sized pack of playing cards and started painting, drawing and pasting....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I forgot about them and now I found them again under a pile on my desk. As I see them now, these cards were very personal small sized journal pages, some of them made in desparate moments...</div>

I had a tough year last year...so I feel like this year will be my year...Iwill try to leave all the bad memories behind and start living again! Ok..easier said than done...but I'm going to give it a try.<br />
<br />
I finished a new page to illustrate my thoughts:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Skip the blabla about...'here I am again' and 'is it really almost two month since I did a blogpost?'..<br />
No blabla about blogging once a month or once a week....or about getting things done...<br />
I bumped into this quote on Pinterest a while ago and this is more the way I feel now:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/7f5b5973b30ce1c888bf3c11cb52791c_zpsc65f14ab.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="222" src="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/7f5b5973b30ce1c888bf3c11cb52791c_zpsc65f14ab.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Which also means I'm hanging on to my art journaling...<br />
Having two jobs, three kids, a dog and a household...I got a lot of balls to hold up in the air! But I'm getting pretty good in this juggling thing..so now and then I try to sneak in a ball named 'art journaling'...<br />
<br />
I started a new 'Teesha Moore-style' journal, cutting up a big sized piece of watercolourpaper and simply binding it with a thread. I feel these journals work the best for me, having different sized pages.<br />
Here is the first page..I even thought of making a 'before' and 'after' picture for you!<br />
This is the page with only a painted background and the collage:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/Falldownvoorwww_zps3719bc92.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/Falldownvoorwww_zps3719bc92.jpg" width="321" /></a></div>
<br />
And the finished page:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/Falldownwww_zps16588723.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/Falldownwww_zps16588723.jpg" width="318" /></a></div>
<br />
I have the beginning of the next page also for you...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/Bluevoorwww_zps761484cf.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="285" src="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/Bluevoorwww_zps761484cf.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A lot of penwork still to be done...I hope to get back soon with the final result!</div>

But..as I am a positive thinker...three is more than creating nothing at all! So, to keep up with my blogging frequency once a month now, here are the newest pages in my pizzabox journal.<br />
It seems like I'm in a flow using 'heads, flowers, birds and butterflies...and some fish!'<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I started decorating the cover of my journal too. I decided to give it a metal look, inspired by this video on YouTube:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/HLJO8W-0iPk?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The front:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/OmniaCausafiuntwww_zpsdc7b3366.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="262" src="http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss253/ScrapSan/OmniaCausafiuntwww_zpsdc7b3366.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Omnia Causa Fiunt means: Everything happens for a reason....</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
