“By the Numbers” Art Journaling Challenge
Hostess: Beckie Holso
Skill Level: 2 - Budding
"FOUR" - our fourth By The Numbers Art Journaling Challenge
The fourth challenge for our monthly art journaling project is to create hot glue stamps & or stencils to use for your fourth page/spread. You can find instructions for this technique on our blog here and here. I've also pinned some links related to this technique on Pinterest here.
Don't forget to do some journaling on your page by writing down your thoughts using an idiom for the number "four". You can find a list of idioms here. Just pick one that inspires your thought process and journal about it. I think the number theme of this project can add a fun element to your pages... you might want to use the respective number prominently in decorating your pages. Don't stop with a simple saying - that's just a prompt to get you started. Let the creativity continue to flow as you journal and decorate your pages.
You have the entire month to complete your pages for this challenge. We won’t be swapping or mailing pages – you will keep the journal you create for your own.
Here are some idioms for "FOUR" to get you going...
scatter to the four winds
four corners of the earth
four sheets to the wind
four wheels
four-bagger
four-bits
four-eyes
four-letter word
411
four-topper
on all fours
Skill Level: 2) BUDDING - Participants will be open to trying new ideas and materials, without necessarily being competent yet with their applications. Swap Hosts are encouraged to add the requirement of a technique or process such as creating texture, using crackle paint, doing photo transfers, painting with watercolor, etc.
Don't forget... As a little incentive for this project, the moderators are offering the opportunity to win a prize for participating.
For each challenge in which you participate (there will be a total of 10), you will earn one entry into the random drawing to be held when the project is complete. The more entries you earn, the bigger the potential prize:
1-3 entries = prize value of $5
4-6 entries = prize value of $10
7-9 entries = prize value of $15
10 entries = prize value of $20
One lucky person will win a gift card to their favorite local craft store up to the value for which they qualified. More participation >> More chances to win >> Bigger potential prize! Plus... it will be lots of fun, too.
