Houses and Buildings

   Matilde here. I’m incredibly happy to be invited to host  at Art Journal Journey again. I think you already know me a little. You can see my work on  my blog, 100% Handmade over at  craftowanie

  I really enjoy creating art journal pages, mixed-media projects, layouts, and tags. My favorite crafting supplies are stamps, paints, mists, inks, and watercolor pencils. I absolutely love Tim Holtz’s style. 

  For this month, I have a theme for you: “Houses and Buildings.” The houses in my journal entry are stamped images that I colored with watercolor pencils. In the background, there are splashes made with mists and patterns created with various stamps. I hope you’ll enjoy this challenge, and I’m looking forward to seeing many creative ideas.



Please don't forget to read the dreaded RULES. We are a blog only group and do not accept links from Facebook, TikTok  or Instagram. Do not back-link to any projects published prior to the start date of the current month's challenge. That means if you have published your post prior to 1 June 2026 it is not acceptable to share it here. Also, we love to see your homes, walks, etc., but you  MUST include a link to your art journal entry and a link to Art Journal Journey.

  6. What a wonderful theme to work with. “Houses and Buildings” opens up so many creative possibilities, from detailed architectural studies to imaginative little worlds built entirely on a page.

  7. It’s a shame you can’t find a way to translate it. Unfortunately, I haven’t managed to find a way to integrate a useful translator...
    ...perhaps this might be technically possible at some point?! Or maybe one of my esteemed fellow bloggers can help me.
    In any case, I’m really pleased that we’re visiting each other’s blogs.

  8. I have a feeling that you must have awesome work experience as an art designer or graphic designer for a newspaper or magazine. Your artwork is amazing and stunning.
