Hello everyone! It is Mia here from the blog Craftartista.
I am thrilled to be hosting May’s challenge at Art Journal Journey.
If you haven’t met me before, I live in Athens, the capital of Greece, with my wonderful husband.
I am a passionate multi-crafter, but art journaling, mixed media and digital art have a special place in my heart because they are very creative.
I love making my own mandalas and AI images which I share with all of you for free.
My theme for May is “Birds”.
Oh, I adore them. They are beautiful, free to fly away and their singing is amazing.
Hope you love birds as much as I do and will have fun making creations showing them.
I will be glad if you join me at Art Journal Journey, so I can see your gorgeous art.
Please don't forget to read the dreaded RULES. We are a blog only

not back-link to any project published prior to the start date of the

DeleteWhat a beautiful introduction 🌸🎨 Your creativity and passion truly shine through every word. It’s wonderful to meet an artist who enjoys so many different forms of expression, especially art journaling and mixed media. Living in Athens must be such an inspiring place for creativity too! I also think it’s incredibly generous that you share your mandalas and AI art freely with everyone — that kindness makes the creative community even more special. Wishing you a fantastic and inspiring May challenge at Art Journal Journey!

DeleteThis is a lovely post and link-up. I came here via recommended from one blogger to another, to another starting with Natalie the Explorer, and ending with someone new to me. I'm a blogger from CA, and I have a page listing blog challenges - writing and photo. Would you be interested in being listed on my page? It's a free service to all blog challenge hosts. Just let me know. Here's my most recent post so you know I'm not a scammer, but no birds, so I won't join your link party. https://alwayswrite.blog/2026/05/20/over-a-cuppa-finding-delight-in-family-friendship-and-everyday-moments/ Have a great week. :)
