10 Day Gratitude Journal



EDIT: This journal is SOLD.

Almost two years ago, I made this fun little grateful journal, thinking I'd use it, but it's been sitting, looking all forlorn, in among my art stash. So, I've decided to sell it. I feel sad, as I always do when I part with something I've poured my heart and soul into, but I can't keep everything I make! 

I designed it while I was on the fabulous Roben-Marie Smith's design team. There's even an hour-long video of it on her YouTube channel. Check it out if you want to see the time-lapse. I recommend changing the playback speed to 2x if you don't have an hour to watch or be bored out of your mind. (Unless of course, you're curious how I achieved the look in detail. ;) ) 
See video

This could be a handy little journal to quickly document ten days of gratitude. I've seen many people do this on the socials. This is a great tool to practice thankfulness during the American thanksgiving season, or really, any time of the year is good too! Check out the hashtags #tendaysofgratitude #gratitudejournal #gratitudeproject 

This little book boasts 16 pages of painterly index cards, a few tags and some POPart cards designed by Roben-Marie Smith.  See photos below, which I've posted in order they appear in the book.

To purchase or if you have any questions, you can reach me at artfulstories@gmail.com or go to my Facebook page Artful Stories, or private message me on Instagram at @annawho.

Week 25/52 of the Life Documented 2019 Project

 Week 25/52 of the Life Documented 2019 Project.

Hi, I'm back with a short little post to show off my recent page in my traveler's journal. I have been following the Life Documented Project for a few years and providing some tutorials for it too, but I haven't been able to get into the mindset of carrying through with all the other great prompts in the group. I finally actually did do one finally. 

The prompt was to make your own paper stencils. I deviated slightly by using one I'd made a long time ago with a transparency sheet. 




I created this layout below for last week's (Week 24/25)  prompt on the Life Documented blog. Tap on link HERE to see it.


Would you like to have your own set of my doodled numbers? Here is a download link from my DropBox if you're interested.



Come join us in the Facebook group to see all the prompts. It's a friendly, fun, rewarding, safe place from beginning to more experienced artists/art dabblers/art journalists alike! 

Link below:


or follow the blog where all the prompts are published.


Thanks so much for stopping by! Until next time!

Week 41 Life Documented Tutorial and Week 33 String Art Challenge

Hi there, creatives! I am pleased to share a fun tutorial with you on the Facebook group, Life Documented 2018 and on their blog. Come check it out!


Facebook Group


Finished the Week 37 challenge also. Well, the prompt was to make a mood board, and that I did not do, but I did try the string art challenge. I used my marbled papers from week 33 as my background paper, so that's where I put it in my unPlanner. :)




Thanks to you all for visiting! :)

10-Day Gratitude Journal Video Tutorial


This blog post is late. Very late. But too late? Nah, probably not, right?
I have been missing from posting here, but I haven't stopped art journaling and other creating.

Back in November 2017 I created a fun little gratitude journal with Paperbag Studio stamps and Roben-Marie Smith's gorgeous artPops, and I have a video tutorial to show you the step by step. Click HERE to see! 








Have a great day!
