'Wreck This Journal'


Some of my nieces received this as a Christmas gift, so I ordered two... one for Ally and one for me (thought it would be fun to do together).  

'Wreck This Journal' by Keri Smith as described on Amazon:

"For anyone who's ever wished to, but had trouble starting, keeping, or finishing a journal or sketchbook comes Wreck This Journal, an illustrated book that features a subversive collection of prompts, asking readers to muster up their best mistake- and mess-making abilities to fill the pages of the book (and destroy them). Acclaimed illustrator Keri Smith encourages journalers to engage in "destructive" acts-poking holes through pages, adding photos and defacing them, painting with coffee, and more-in order to experience the true creative process. Readers discover a new way of art and journal making-and new ways to escape the fear of the blank page and fully engage in the creative process."

Here are some of the images I found online of what others who have "wrecked their journals" have done: 

















I also love Keri Smith's website.  So many creative ideas for expressing one's self:

As Ally and I have this little momma-daughter adventure, I'll post pictures along the way.

Sarah You never realize how much you love something until you don't have it anymore. I took home for granted. I remember everyone always talking about how bad they wanted to move away. Well I would give anything to live back there... Like  ·   ·  Share  ·  about an hour ago  via  mobile  ·
