• GPP Street Team Grid Challenge – An art journal page

    Posted on June 15, 2010 by in Art Journals

    I haven’t had a chance to do a crusade in a while, but Michelle got my attention with grids. I love grids. Grids are used in both print and web design and the true fun is in breaking them. In the right way of course.

    I tried to take in progress pictures but that only lasts for a little while, then I lose track of it. I’m better with video but I didn’t think to record this one.

  1. Christy – yay! You’re back! Thanks for sharing your grid *in process*. Very cool to see the beginnings, and then how you chose to fill each module. Really nice! Great color combos.

    Hi Christy,
    Your grids are beautiful! Such yummy colors and I love the progression.

    You’ve achieved a real feel of texture – I think it’s the circles that do it – love it! Your grid has turned out great. Do I spot a hint of bubble wrap printing?

      Thank you Cath! It is actually sequin waste in this journal spread. I absolutely use bubble wrap though, it is a favorite!

    Oh, I love to see the evolution of your grid page.
    I love me some sequin waste action!
    Cheers,
    Sophie

    This is cool. It’s fun looking at the different interpretations of the challenge. I see ideas here that I’d like to borrow on a future grid.
