Gratitude Junk Journal 2020

 Happy November Everyone!

This month I've signed up to the Gratitude Junk Journal 2020 class. The first session was to alter a hardback book to use as an art journal. I chose a rather large book on African art. It's 13x10", a bit bigger than I usually use.

I've been really grateful for all the beautiful birds that have visited my garden this year, and as well as the stencilled birds flying across the moon, I added a couple of bird charms to dangle from the spine.

I'm linking my journal cover to Wendy's Birds theme at Art Journal Journey.

I'm also linking to Leah's Art Every Day Month Challenge Day 2.

Thanks for dropping by,
