st sunday 20 march 2011 art journal challenge weeks 10 11 hello hello i m feeling virtuous this is due to the following for the first time in years i resisted the temptation to go to the great northern papercrafts extravaganza which was held this weekend in harrogate this was decided after the 3 craft shops in 3 days trip i went on with friends a few weeks back in which i wasn t so virtuous my debit card got a lot of action that weekend i cleaned out the greenhouse today not a euphemism i swept up and discarded slugs and mouldy tomatoes from last autumn and everything i seem to have caught up with all of the prompts for the ukstampers weekly art journaling challenge here s proof of the latter at least my response to the prompt for week 10 which based around the idea of one week recording the things you did during that week with evidence my week involved returning home from the aforementioned crafting weekend going to work buying scarves and notebooks going to see count arthur strong s stage show and spending a day at the crop just in case the 3 days of crafting i d just returned form hadn t quite fulfilled my creative urges the evidence includes a bus ticket home nicely spattered with paint and ink and till receipts it was a 4 notebook week excessive even for me i had a hand in selecting the theme for week 11 as i mentioned here the other day to list 5 things that make you scared and use a scary colour on the background now then before we go on would you care to guess any of my 5 things i bet you can get at least one of them right considering that to select the theme for this week i d randomly flipped through an old dictionary until effie who sets the challenge said stop when i then read aloud what was on that page how funny is it that the definition we came across the definition of scare involved dogs after that there really was no way that i wouldn t be incorporating that exact definition on my actual page yeah no prizes for guessing that they d make it on to my list of fear the little character is a gorjuss girl who i saved from the envelope of a birthday card sent to me by the lovely andrea finally here s the rest of that list of things which leave me shuddering in fact just last night i screamed startled at the tv when an advert for some show involved a big ship tipping over in deep water combining 2 of the horrors on my list in one vile moment so those 5 are the main contenders right now but really i could have gone on i mean i haven t yet covered large aeroplanes head injuries stigmata loud noises looking down a stairwell not being able to check emails never writing a book the incorrect use of apostrophes and on it goes and after all that i feel obliged to finish like crimewatch always did so please don t have nightmares dear subconscious i hope you re listening to that too ok ok jx posted by julie kirk at 20 26 8 comments labels art journal journaling ukstampers challenge spray ink paint stamps rubber

smiling because it s friday the sun s shining for the first time all week i m about to put a special specially commissioned journal in the post i ll be listening to my new jonsi cd in the car on the way to work today which should compliment that sunshine perfectly and it s sunny out there or did i mention that already the golden rays have even sneaked into the photos i ve taken of the latest odd characters to grace the pages of my tag journal and even thought the weather is indeed finally warming up this poor lady has taken this particular fashion advice a little too far and as for this chap well he got tired of climbing up and down those mountains so he sprouted his own wings he was cut from a leaflet for a denver national park that effie was throwing away at a crop and as a longtime fan of the humble goat i guess it s a capricorn thing and the fact i like clambering i took pity on him and brought him home with me if you missed the overview of how i decorated the tag backgrounds you can catch up on that here and the other pages in this journal can be found in here as for the create soft fuzz and encourage flyaways phrase i think that came from a magazine feature on hair but can just as readily be used as a life philosophy i think oh and while we re on the topic of soft fuzziness and friends freaky or otherwise i just want to grab this chance to say thank you for the steady stream of comments that you leave here for me that you take a moment to pause and type something to let me know i m not whistling into the wind means a lot so thanks really right then i hope the sunshine s reached your corner or the globe today and if it has just be careful of how far you push up those sleeves now won t you j x posted by julie kirk at 11 06 6 comments labels art journal art

catching up on a little flickr gallery admin this week every now and again when i remember and when i have the time i upload my recent projects to my flickr stream so that as well as some of them appearing in blog posts here and there they re all in one place sometimes when i m feeling self critical and lazy a quick skim through my ever expanding gallery acts like a small slap round the face so while i was adding to my archive this week i realised how i never hardly ever blog any of my magazine work i think that the main reason for this is the long lead time on them the time between having made the project it being pubished and the being able to blog about it can be something like 3 months sometimes i forget to blog about something i made yesterday never mind 3 months ago which is why my magazine work usually just gets uploaded to flickr without a dedicated post to each project however while i was about to upload the following layout i decided that i d had such fun making it that i wanted to share it here too one of 5 items in the set you can see it alongside the others here it appeared in issue 82 of papercraft inspirations magazine dec jan 2010 11 the commission was simply to make use of a specific stamp set all in the family from stampin up the set is made up of individual heads bodies legs and arms m aking it fully interchangeable and easy to customise and after creating several straightforward characters with it i thought i d try something a little more creative and took my inspiration from the ancient photobooth strip photo of me and james there s probably a proper papercrafting term for how i did this but i don t know it so i ll try to explain it s as simple as making little masks to cover over areas you don t want to stamp on for eg on the bottom photo i stamped the boy head first stamped it again on scrap paper cut the scrap out placed it over the originla and then stamped the girl face even though she overlaps the section of her face which would have obscured hiws is actually only stamped on to the scrap of paper which is then removed i also made little scrap paper frames for each of the photos so i could stamp over the edge of the border then i removed the frames leaving the images contained inside does any of that make sense if not and you d really like to try this just shout up and i ll take some step by step photos it s a technique i d like to try again maybe with different stamps although the beauty of these was how flexible all of those individual elements made it even the spectacles were a tiny individual stand alone stamp so you can add on to any face which i did did you spot how the stamped me pinched the stamped james s glasses in the last photo fiddly but a very cute end result naturally i m referring here to cute as in cute in a good way not the other kind not cute cute don t ever let me wander oblivious into the dark side of cute please my crafting soul will thank you for it do let me know if you ve done something similar with stamps or if you d like me to give a better visual explanation or if you actually know the proper term for that technique thanks for dropping in on me today julie posted

heard that rumour hi hi hi not that i m thinking of turning this into a scientific study or anything but i swear i used to overhear far more and far funnier snippents of student conversation when i used to sit at the back of lecture theatres currently i have to sit at the front and you just don t get the same level of disclosure down there so close to the lecturers so like today s offering my best overheard fodder these days comes from places other than lecture rooms like the computer labs a few weeks back two male students were working on computers next to one another i say working but judging by their conversation i doubt there was much of that occurring the scene student 1 was debating whether or not to send a facebook friend request to someone and was looking through their mutual friends list before he decided student 1 to student 2 oh he s friends with my pregnant friend pause but then she s friends with everyone i m not sure if he meant it how it sounded or if indeed he was well aware of his groucho marx noel coward style witticism not being able to interupt and ask someone to clarify precisely what they meant is one of the downsides of listening in to conversations have a great day keep your eyes and ears open you just never know julie image taken from the vintage theatre circus cd from 3djean posted by julie kirk at 00 05 4 comments labels overheard conversations university campus friends facebook scandal vintage image cd email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest sunday 13 march 2011 art journal challenge weeks 7 9 hello you how s things yesterday i helped effie choose a theme for this week s ukstampers art journal challenge and by randomly landing on a page from an old children s dictionary i was cutting up we struck upon the word scare and so the topic for next week week 11 became 5 things which scare you then a few hours after helping to choose that theme last night i had a full on wake up in a sweat crying uncontrollably frightened for your life daren t close your eyes can t go back to sleep nightmare honestly james did everything he could to comfort me but i was a hard case to console at one point i think he was tired and quickly running out of ideas he uttered the bizarre phrase let me comfort you with my big sleep so while i ponder on what on earth that sentence meant allow me to share with you my responses to the less terrifying themes from weeks 7 9 week 7 colours use your favourite colour as a background doodle a border round the page i really don t have a favourite colour i love lots of them green blue and pink especially and dare i say it even white a non colour is high up there vying for the top spot my favourite item of clothing ever ever ever has to be the plain white t shirt so i really didn t know what to do for this page then i spotted the are you ready for beige caption in my art journaling stash which i d chopped out of an old elle magazine and i decided to build a page around it to combat the beige which i do actually like btw i sliced up a paint colour chart and glued the entire range into my journal on now to week 8 books list your top 5 use an old book page as a background i didn t use an old book page but idid find a wonderful old text stamp to do the job just as well my quote below is taken from the infinitely quotable author andrew miller from the novel ingenious pain the definition of book above was taken form the children s dictionary i mentioned at the start of this post week 9 fashion fashion disasters favourite pieces all of which i interpreted rather loosely the model is composited from snippets from various magazines and my ever faithful jack wills catalogue which is also where i found the phrase casual but i can rock them on a night out phrase the dress form shape actually came free with a recent issue of papercraft inspirations magazine and i used as a stencil to ink through rather than a template to draw around the journaling is all true i was indeed a precocious fashion guru apparently i refused to wear days of the week underwear on the wrong days and would happily point out when things my mam was trying to dress me in didn t match no one who knows me should be surprised by this so that s all for now but i have got weeks 10 journal your week and 11 what scares you to complete and then share soon but after the whole choosing a scary topic then having a nightmare coincidence i m slightly wary of helping effie choose another week s theme unless unless of course i suggest the theme of becoming rich eradicating injustice and fulfilling your every wish while wearing a lifetime s supply of haute couture and breath stopping footwear as the theme for week 12 let s just say that if i m not around much in the next week or so you ll know that one came true too failing that then here s to a non scary week ahead for us all i ll see you very soon julie posted by julie kirk at 19 34 5 comments labels art journal

of mind reading at the dinner table hi hi hi i was away 3 days in a country cottage with 7 other crafters and a lorry load of food but now i m back look i m right here yoo hoo i m over here on the

anyway here s the fully co ordinating layout in question the photos of me and my big sis were taken seconds apart at the christmas lunch table last year backing paper quietude from the sweetness of living range by onirie when i d downloaded them on to the computer and could flick between them it made me laugh to see how composed and smiley we were in the second shot compared to how crazy we looked before we were fully prepared jo looked a little like a grazing hen while i appeared to have been caught communing with the deceased or in the midst of an act of clairvoyance images from vintage theatre circus image cd which is where the jounaling came into it purple onion labelers stamp set this is pretty much my style of scrapping at the moment silly funny a bit odd based on
