Wreck this journal #5

I've been slacking on my wreck this journal but the last few day's I've gotten stuck back in it! So here's the latest update, please ignore the 5 year old like finger painting. 



Page 13 - This page is for Handprints or finger prints, get them dirty. Then press them down. 

Excuse the Soddy painting, Used the leftovers of what my sisters used to create a abominable mess, but I totally hit my childhood days with this!






Page 80-81 - Drip something here (ink, paint, tea) Close the book to make a print. 


I'm really pleased with how this turned out, so i didn't drip I sort of used quick random strokes instead. But I honestly think I'm the only person to think it's a peacock! 



Page 167 - Document Time passing. 

Well I struggled to get a concept for this page (and yes I know, wreck this journal isn't really for over thinking but this is me and that's how I am) 

So clearly the Hickery dickery dock clock and the mice. Then random quotes about time. (pretty basic really) but my inspiration behind this was a wake up call to myself, I've wasted a lot and I mean a lot of my time this year  dwelling on the past and it's about time I snap out of it because Life is for living. 





Page 106 - This page is dedicated to Lyrics

Another one of the pages I've added myself so my Journal doesn't have blank pages and to be honest, if Kerry smith knew the audience that in general would buy wreck this journal I have no doubt there would be a page similar to this included somewhere in it.




So just a quick update; currently in progress are the best pages of my journal in my opinion, Including the colour this page which will be tokidoki themed and is taking hours to complete. The fruit stickers page which  I'll be amazed ever gets finished.... It's horrible seeing my wreck this journal journey come to an end but all good things come to an end and after I was so disappointed with this is not a book I hope there's another in the series that captivates me as much as this has! Part 6 will be along a lot sooner than this update I promise!

Wreck this Journal #3

so seems as my previous wreck this journal entries have gotten a response I wasn't expecting, Here's the third part of my wreck this journal Journey. I have to admit some of the posts In this blog are a little disappointing to the perfectionist inside of me but the whole point of 'wreck this journal' is to test yourself as well as the book and see how far your creativity will take you. so here we go: 


Pages 158 & 159 - Glue a page from a magazine, circle words you like.


so I demolished my Company magazines and ended up with this; So clearly the page has the Beautiful Lily Allen and Rihanna but the main focus was the Zooey deschanel Interview from company <3

'Make Tea not war'




Pages 24 & 25 -
Scribble wildly, violently with reckless abandon. 


Says what it is on the tin, scribble.. scribble. 







Pages 4 & 5 - stand here, wipe your feet. 

Yeah I actually hate feet and I hate this page! but yeah, wiped my Vans on here before i ended up with this can obviously see the damage they created? no. 





Page 29 -Glue, staple, or tape these pages together. 

Pointless placing of this page next to the tear strips, rip it up page really isn't it? 





Page 27 Tear strips, rip it up. 

Page before the last entry see the problem now? completed this at stupid o'clock in the morning hence the little imagination. Might redo this page eventually! 






so yeah part three and hopefully the worst entry of this series! Really need to get my creative flow going again to make the journal the best it can be... before I destroy it by taking it in the shower. (maybe). there should be an update within the few days along with a small update on 'this is not a book' because I can't even explain how disappointed I was with it! but I will complete it, just not document it like this!
