Art journal pages

Hey folks,
Sharing my art journal pages, which really reflect my actual state of mind.

There are times , when our heart says go talk to that person, resolve all the issues but the brain says the other way round. there is always a conflict between the brain and the heart.

Hi folks,
I have been away for long long time from the world of blogging and crafting. Have been travelling to Costa Rica and India, enjoying the world greenest place and a big fat Indian wedding.

trying to be back to normal routine with this Valentine Day layout made as  a member of Design team for Mixed Media Mojo.

I have made these hearts by cutting heart with recycled cardboard and then randomly pasting papers on it .then painted it with water color.
