How to: Seasonal Art Journal Page - Creative Team Thursday with Karen Gaunt



Hello everyone! It’s Karen here again for another creative team post for Jessica! A snippet of a song heard when I was out shopping inspired this month’s project. It’s often the way with me, my muse strikes me at the strangest of times!






I’m using The Byrds song “Turn Turn Turn” as inspiration for this seasonal page. I think we are all dreaming of the change in the seasons at this time of the year so it is certainly on my mind just now.

The following stencils and stamps from Jessica Sporn Designs were used to create this art journal page:





I’ve made a video of my process below so I hope you enjoy watching!

    What an awesome page Karen! I love how you gave the trees seasonal personalities. And the retro circles and squares were great in the sky. So cool! Yes - this is the time to renew, restore, and rejoice!

    Your interpretation of that song was so fun !!! I loved your use of gelato's (a fav of mine) and the simplicity of the seasons on the trees was perfection.......The outcome of these pages looked effortless--- Off to my studio !!!! :-)
    Thanks for sharing...
