Documented Life Project 2015 – Week 25

Today I'm sharing what I created for Week 25 of
The Original Documented Life Project™ The Journal!

June Theme
Travel Journaling

June 20 Challenge & Prompt
Art Challenge:  Hometown Inspiration
Journal Prompt:  There is no place like home

For this journal page, I began by painting the background with Dylusions Acrylic Paint. I created the next layer by adhering Art Pops™ from Roben-Marie Smith’s In the Garden Collection to the page. I stamped Kristin Peterson's new Dream Thicket Rubber Art Stamps onto a Jet Black Ink Pad then vintage maps and underpaper, then cut and collaged these onto the page to add another layer. Inspired by the art challenge, I stamped around the cities where close family members live. I like how the rectangle stamp with 3 circles resembles a stoplight, reminding me of road trips!

It was fun incorporating June Pfaff Daley's Road Trip USA stencils from StencilGirl Products, too! Inspired by the art challenge, I stenciled the states of Missouri, Illinois, and Louisiana where close family live.

I used paint pens to add lines and doodles, and roadway washi tape added another layer and nice border to the layout. Below are details of my page:

I'm dedicating this page to my wonderful grandmother who passed away Friday.
I hope the process of art journaling brings you joy and peace and sweet memories, too. 
This has been my first year participating in The Original Documented Life Project™, and it has brought me such great joy!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog.
I hope you have a wonderful week,
