Wreck This Journal Update 2016 #1

Just a quick update on my wreck this journal! It's been pretty fun to get back into drawing and using my imagination to think of ideas for each page.


This page has the prompt "Make a mess, clean it up". 


"Poke holes in this page using a pencil" I used a pen, that still counts right? Well, I'm sure James Bond makes up for it anyway.


"Space for negative comments"


"Pick up the journal without using your hands" use the force instead ;) 


"Crack the spine"


"Doodle over the top of this page" Little bit of hunger games action.

That concludes my first wreck this journal update for 2016, Hope you are all having a creative and inspired Year so far!

Infinite x's and o's,

New Year, New Wreck This Journal


It's a brand new year! I thought it was only fitting to start my second wreck this journal that has been just sitting in my shelf for a couple months waiting for me to begin wrecking again.
This time I decided I would make some wreck with me videos as well, so if you'd like to see those, head over to my youtube channel. I'll try to keep updated and do at least 2 videos every month.





My cover! I love collages and wolves, if you can't tell. I did a similar cover on my previous wreck this journal.
There's a tutorial on my youtube channel how I did this.
Basically i printed off some images from tumblr on regular copy paper and stuck them on with some gold washi tape around the edges. 


Instructions page! Inspired by Alice in Wonderland 


Pour, spill, drip, spit, fling your coffee here page. Also inspired by Alice in Wonderland (can you see a trend?)


Colour this entire page. Inspired by the New york skyline. I used chalk pastels and a black marker pen.



Tie a string to the spine of the book and swing wildy page. Inspired by The Hunger Games.

Hope you're having a great week! x
