Highlights of the Week #51
Can you believe there will only be one more edition of Highlights of the Week for 2010? This year has gone by SO fast. But… just on the horizon is Art journal Caravan 2011. I’m so excited that Tangie has decided to continue with our journey. Will you be joining us in 2011?
As the year is winding down the gallery is shining with lots of gorgeous pages. This is just a sample of the inspiration to be found in the Art Journal Caravan Gallery.

Highlights of the Week #50
A relaxing and fun challenge!
This year I was introduced to the world of ATC’s. The little cards of wonder! I had become so accustomed to a 12×12 inch canvas, switching to 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 was a bit rough (I admit I do 5×7 and then shrink). But having different size canvases has become a favorite thing of mine.
This month’s Altered ARTspiration from Tangie is Gothic Arches. I love how people are using these arches in so many different ways:
Scrappie Irene blew me away with her digital one, but then her hybrid card “Merry Christmas” is just unbelievable with the elegance and old fashion Christmas feel:
For a completely different look ladynorth used 3 arches and made this wonderful page “Winter Solstice Longest Night”:
As always, I love the comments in the gallery. I do believe that people in the altered world of creating can leave the kindest and most uplifting comments:
Here’s Wishing you all you Wish For!
& please upload it to our Altered Artspirations Gallery {here} then come back and link us up in this SBG thread so we can leave you some love, and know who participated (Tangie gives the coupons from here not from the gallery so please make sure you let us know you played)!
Everyone that participates in the Artspiration Challenges each month get a $3 coupon to Studio Tangie & each entry will also be put into a drawing for a $15 gift card to Studio Tangie (you may enter up to 3 pieces per month for a chance to win)!
DEADLINE: December 31st!

Can’t wait to see yours!!
Itinerary UP!
I did a bit of artistic license on the number today!! I needed to feel the illusion of warmth. I see the snow and freezing temperatures hitting parts of the world, and here in northern California, we are socked in with drizzling non-stop rain for the next 10 days! I have the coldest feet in this hemisphere, and just looking at this fabulous provision package has me feeling a bit cozier:
As my fellow caravaners know, you don’t need to have the provision for the itinerary. The prompts this week will help you “aspire” and share those aspirations! We have just one more week, finishing this long and satisfying journey of art journaling!
My apologies to those not on the journey, the link is not available to you, but I would like to invite you to join us all for Expedition 2011.
