Miss me?! After a two week break for vacation, I’m back and ready to create.

I saw an article about art journals on decor8 that hit a chord in me. One of the areas I’ve struggled with is keeping memories alive through my journals and writings. I’ve tried my hand at scrapbooking, but the supplies can be incredibly expensive. Art journals are more informal and organic. I can use whatever objects strike my fancy, and I don’t have to worry about everything matching.

This art journal is by Patty Von Dorin.

A decor8 reader left a comment with a link to the website of Matt Mallams. I was completely absorbed by this male perspective on journaling and art.

I’ve previously blogged about my love of Record the Day.

This journal by Julochka is a little more scrapbook-ish.

Rachel Denbow, the author of Bling on my Sewing Machine, offers online classes through Etsy.

With all this inspiration, my goal is to start and stick with an art journal. Wish me luck!

Do you keep any type of journal?
