Welcome to May. With the new month, it's time for a new challenge. This month at Art Journal Journey we have something a little different for you. We have one new theme, but instead of one host, we have two. This month Valerie from Bastelmania is one of our hosts, and our second host is Erika from BioArtGal.
Valerie of Bastelmania here, and I am much looking forward to hosting this month's challenge together with Erika. We live in different countries, far apart, but can work together, and that's great! We thought it would be fun to host together, and our theme this month is
POEMS
Here's Valerie's piece
Don't be scared by the theme of poems. It doesn't have to be anything special or super complicated. You can choose a poem or short verse or limerick or whatever poems you like. You can compose your own or choose works from famous people. main thing is to have fun. Make your poem part of a journal page, and that's the way to go! My first piece is very simple, a little poem about bees, as a tribute to Erika who cares for her bees:
Erika from BioArtGal here. I'm excited to be working with Valerie. She said it perfectly. Although we live far apart, I love how we are working together. I guess I should have added some bees to my flower garden page. (grin). I know Valerie is like me and loves being outside (or making art) rather than doing housework. I'm not sure if these 2 ladies in my journal page look like either of us, but here we are, both of us, outside on a beautiful May day.
What a super theme and a wonderful collaboration between Valerie and Erika. Both beautiful designs, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for free time to be able to play along this month.
