Mini Grunge Journal

This week I was lucky enough to get to a workshop at Art From The Heart which was taught by the lovely  Sandra Hall and she designed and showed us how to make this wonderful little grunge book - its ATC size.  We had a wonderful relaxing, crafty day!! Thanks so much Sandra - hugs!!!






We used some Tim Holtz papers, some tags which we decorated and some on which we created our own unique resist pages and coloured with blended distress ink pads.  Totally loved it and can see myself doing more of them as they are a fabulous way of using up some of the massive store of small pieces of paper I seem to collect!!! No surprise to those who know me, I cant throw anything away no matter how small!! LOL xx

  3. Oh, this is darling! I so envy you being able to attend classes at AFTH. Don't tell anyone on my side of the pond that I said this, but I think the Brit's really know how to rock those art journals!
