Let's create & collect Art Journal Pages in 2013.

~ Watch for more fun prompts throughout 2013!


Create ( 2 ) original Art Journal Pages and send to ( 1 ) partner.

  • Not profile specific. Senders Choice. Let yourself go and have some fun. NO sticker slapping - ACK! Create the pages that you would love to receive!!!

Page 1 prompt: I am A Queen.

~ How would YOU look as a Queen? Create a profile view. Add a fancy hat. Queen up a movie star you would love to be.

Page 2 Prompt: 5 things TO DO in 2013.

~ Maybe a holiday! An art workshop! Buying something new for yourself. Your starting a new exercise.

  • Page base examples: Watercolour paper. Project cardboard. Sturdy cardstock. Manilla file folder card. Recycled card like from a cereal box. You will soon find what works for you.

  • TOTAL Art Journal Page base size: 7 inches wide X 5 inches long/deep on very sturdy base.

  • TOTAL Art Space size: 6 inches wide X 5 inches long/deep.

  • Binding margin: leave a 1 inch wide margin on the LEFT side of the page (no embellishments). The margin is for your swap partners binding pleasures!

  • When you make the margin the page must be Landscape (horizontal).

Page size guide - Landscape (horizontal) here:

AJP blank

  • However you are free to create Portrait (vertical), it just means the binding margin will be at the top of your page.

Page size guide - Portrait (vertical) here:

AJP portrait

  • Now let’s get creative and Art Up these Pages: paint, inks, pens, stamping, embossing, magazine pieces, page pieces, music pieces, tissue paper, napkins, photo pieces, your own drawing, words, use your own hand-writing, add some stitches from your sewing machine, a nice scrapbook stick-on, ribbon, lace, embellishments, try a new technique ..… your imagination is your only limit.

  • As this is an international swap, please make sure that your embellishments are not fragile or add some protection (example – piece of bubble wrap, recycled even) to protect the pretties.

  • Add something nice to the back of each page: more of your art, patterned paper, part of a picture from a calendar. Page from a novel or music book. A note to your partner about your page/s and or what medias/materials you used.

Please! Include your clearly written swap-bot name and the swap title.

Art Journal Page labels for your use if you need. Size it to what you would like.

Do we have to use the labels? Or can we use what we have.

@misseslela you are welcome to use what you have, that is a-Ok.

I included the labels just in-case someone needed one!
