I've had my copy of wreck this journal for some time and have - somewhat sporadically - started to fill it up with a number of experiments and bits and bobs. Unfortunately I haven't added to it for some time and it has sat, alone on my bookshelf, gaining dust.
However today I stumbled across not one, but two of my favourite bloggers talking about their own experiences with this book - you can check them out at vivatramp and tiny paint pot - which have inspired me to crack this book out again.
So first up heres a couple of photos to show you my progress so far, all these pages are old ones but hopefully soon I will be able to update with some pieces of my more recent creations!
This was a really fun page to complete, drawing the numbers on top of one another was quite a new way of working for me.
Although this looks like a shoe print I actually drew this from the bottom of my dads boot - I couldn't quite face putting dirty shoe prints in my journal just yet!
I'm really pleased with the effect of this page, its quite quirky an again was a lot of fun to complete!
Have you got a wreck this journal I'd love to see what you do for more inspiration? Please let me know what you think of mine too!
Love these pages! :) it's funny, because the idea is to wreck it (obviously) but there's just somethinggg stopping me from getting stuck in - hopefully soon though. Thanks for the inspiration! :) x

DeleteThe scratch page is wonderfully effective! I keep debating whether or not to buy Wreck This Journal, as I don't really consider myself to be that creative. I am a perfectionist though, and will probably compare mine (unfavourably) to other people's work though... so that would be awkward...

Thank you :) And definitely get one they are lots of fun and will certainly bring out your creative side. Just try and let go and accept that it doesn't need to look good (hard I know) it's all about enjoying it. xx
