Today: Get Messy Thursdays | Adventure, Week 3

Today: Get Messy Art Journal | Weeks 5 + 6
Weeks 1 + 2 were all gold and glittery. Weeks 3 + 4 were all dark and brooding. Weeks 5 + 6 are… well… all over the place. I only worked on (and I feel like all three are sort of unfinished) three pages, but…
