"Romance" Art Journal for Weekly Art Challenge


Romance was our challenge this week on Inspiration Avenue's Weekly Art Challenge.
I made an art journal. The cover is decorated with inspirational embellishments. What place is supposed to be the most romantic place on earth? Paris! Yes, the city of lights. One day I may get there.


I used some vintage lace and beautiful antiqued papers on the cover. I love all of these pretty fancy yarns.
 

Inside more vintage laces and a pretty Eiffel tower pendant.

Dream has been added because what is art made of but dreams. This Art Journal will be listed in my etsy shop today.

  3. Paris is indeed incredibly romantic. I would love to be sitting at a pavement cafe right now enjoying a fine glass of wine with a light supper and a handsome man - who would be making eyes at me over l'escargot!
    A beautiful journal.
