Last day of Through my Window at Art Journal Journey

Hi Everybody!

Today is the last day of our 'Through my window' challenge at
Art Journal Journey, which Corinne has been hosting. Many thanks to her for all the journal pages she made and all those visits she made to comment on everybody's blogs; it takes a lot of time and effort, and she did a great job!
If you want to know what the new challenge is, just come back tomorrow....

I made a collage of all my entries again, and I am always surprised when I see them all together. It was a fun month.


This was a journal page I made and forgot about, so here it is before the challenge is over:




And a few photos taken out and about:












Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

  12. Love your collage Valerie - its great to see them all the together and makes me feel that I'm at an art gallery ( and no entry fee ) a lovely treat!
    Fabulous journal page and other photos too. I see you will be making squash soup - if you have any spare can you pop some down the line as I love that - its nice in a vegetable curry too.

  14. Me again... thanks for the lovely comments Valerie.
    I never know if people see replies so I have written this on your blog just in case..

    You asked about paper and I think you are more experienced with this and may be able to advise me instead LOL
    The paper I have been using has been cartridge paper (from a Winsor & Newton cartridge sketch pad 110gsm) but I think I need to experiment with a thicker paper as ink sometimes goes through and the paper cockles.
    I did try on watercolour paper but it didn't work well as the water soaked in before I had time to get ink on.
    And when I added the Brusho powders on that other piece after first adding the ink it needed still to be wet of course.
    Maybe a layer of Gesso would help of course.
    Any ideas? Gill xx

  21. Hi Valerie, I love when you do a collage of all the creations you've designed for the month. That in itself is a page. Gorgeous. Great walking pics too.
    Love seeing the windows

  24. I knew I'd be late, but when I started visiting, I couldn't get anything to load. I rebooted six times, then my mouse quit working. It's really, really hard to work without a mouse. Old ctrl skills had to come into play.

    This is a great way to wrap up an exceptional month. I love the way all the "windows" look so good together. Of course, my favorite was Windows 10, a much more friendly Windows than Microsoft is offering at the moment.

    The misty look you achieved in the photo of the stream is wonderful. I can't seem to get mist to show in my photos.
