19 August 2013 | Marsha.

Not reading much right now… I have PAAZ by Myrthe van der Meer waiting for me on the iPad and I have a stack of magazines that I collected especially for my summer break… still untouched.

The Stencilfied Journal | Prompt #5: Create a mirror image, using stencils⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ I know, I know... I covered it up. But I promise that there is a mirror image somewhere behind the cute @art_by_marlene die-cut and all the fuss I made!⠀ ⠀⠀ My little page spread was stencilled using the @stencilgirl_products stencil 'Mosaic Flowers Repeat' by @jennevansmixedmedia, gesso and @decoartmedia Fluid Acrylics in Primary Cyan, Primary Magenta and Primary Yellow.⠀ ⠀⠀ There's also black pen, soft pastel, gel medium, Posca marker and @dinawakley Media Washi Tape on the pages.⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The Stencilfied Journal is a StencilGirl® Collaboration Challenge hosted by the fab @adogslife13. From June through September she's sharing one 'Wreck this Journal'-esque prompt a week (16 in total). ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ If this sounds like something you'd enjoy too then grab a notebook and join us!!!⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ------⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Please note that though I am a @stencilgirl_products columnist and the stencil I used for this journal page, plus some of the other supplies were generously given to me, this is not a sponsored post! I'm participating in this collab because I think @adogslife rocks and the challenge is a lot of fun!!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #thestencilfiedjournal #stencilgirl #stencilgirlproducts #mixedmedia #artjournaling #stencils #acrylicpaint #artjournaleveryday #jumpstartyourcreativity #decoartmedia #dinawakleymedia #posca #artastherapy #studiolight_nl #artbymarlene #artbymarleneinspired

Monday Monday | I exercise two to three times a week.⠀ ⠀ I love the walk home afterwards.⠀ ⠀ It’s the bridge between the workout and the workday.⠀ ⠀ Sometimes I’m lost in thought, sometimes I notice all kinds of things around me. ⠀ ⠀ Sometimes I come up with a hundred ideas for a project!⠀ ⠀ Today was all about appreciating the beautiful weather, the flowers in peoples front gardens and seeing the headphone wearing girl that always sings out loud.⠀ ⠀ #morningwalk #morningwalks #fromwhereistand #watchyourstep #pavement #sidewalk #ihavethisthingwithfloors #followmyfeet #viewfromthetop #lookdown #littlestoriesofmylife #nothingisordinary

The Stencilfied Journal | Prompt #4: Stencil with your least favourite colour. Write about things you love.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Dear brown... It's not you, it's me!⠀ ⠀ I believe that there is a place for all colours and I don't rule any of them out when it comes to creating. But I'm generally not a fan of brown nor of an autumnal colour palette. ⠀ ⠀ So to go all the way out of my comfort zone with this prompt I chose Burnt Umber, Yellow Ochre and Naples Yellow Red (which is a salmony pink) to work with.⠀ ⠀ I ended up with a rust coloured background for my hand-lettered words. The words are the Dutch names of some of the plants and flowers in my yard. ⠀⠀ The @stencilgirl_products stencil I used for the background is 'Stockinette Large Pattern' by @pamcarriker.⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ The Stencilfied Journal is a StencilGirl® Collaboration Challenge hosted by the fab @adogslife13. From June through September she's sharing one 'Wreck this Journal'-esque prompt a week (16 in total). ⠀⠀⠀ If this sounds like something you'd enjoy too then grab a notebook and join us!!!⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ------⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ Please note that though I am a @stencilgirl_products columnist and the stencil I used for this journal page was given to me to use for a column, this is not a sponsored post!

Around here | Sad score of potted garden plants that died because we forgot to water them (up until now): three.⠀ ⠀ That's not counting the carrot and tomato seedlings that never made it to the yard.⠀ ⠀ But this sunflower seedling? Still going strong!!! I have high hopes of it growing taller than me. It's already about 2/3 on the way there!⠀ ⠀ #growyourownflowers #hesimpleeveryday #botanicalpickmeup #acornerofmyhome #littlestoriesofmylife #simplethings #nothingisordinary #sunflowers #ahmoestuintje #uiteigentuin bijna #groenevingers
