{Part two} - Exploring words and collage

Swap 1: Using words

The first swap in part 2 begins by exploring words on your pages. Now we have learnt how to create our own mixed media pages, we will be able to make our own backgrounds, and be more confident with our creativity. In these swaps we will move on to materials and themes that require you to think about yourself and your life, and bring YOU to your own journal page creations. This may be easier or harder for mixed media, but let's all try to get involved and learn something about ourselves.

Page 1; Using a base of your choice learnt from part 1, we will add a quote drawn or hand written or stamped by you using any paint, rubber stamp, pencil, pen, etc. This quote must not be words cut out or from a book. It is written, drawn or stamped by you. You can leave the page blank and use coloured pens and pencils with doodles, word art shapes, and explore typography. Or you can recreate a coloured base or print like in part 1 and simply write a quote somewhere on the page using pen or pencil. How you do it is up to you but the minimum requirement is 1 quote no less than 10 letters. The quote does not have to be taken from a source, it can be a thought from your mind.

Example Here, Here

Page 2; Using a journal prompt we will think about ourselves and get creative. Using any of the journal prompts below, the majority of the page has to be covered. The base/background of your page is up to you, you can leave it blank or colour, paint, collage however the majority of the page must be handwritten by you and presented nicely. You may choose any prompt from this list;

-10 rules I have broken

  • Page must be no smaller than small postcard size. Any paper or card for your page is welcome. Please do not fold your page in the envelope and include a note for your partner.

  • Please rate based on if your partner used the materials, NOT on what your partner has created.
