Another Art Journal!

I finished another art journal, with the nice thick paper for painting, stamping, and collaging. Even though I love this one as much as my blue one, I've decided to sell it, probably on ebay.

I'm excited about a possible sale, but it's a little scary too!

Now I just have to figure out how to set up an account on line...Have a fun Saturday!

Altered Book

This past summer, I wanted to make something special for my daughters son, who was born in Sept. I took an old children's board book, and papered over each page. Then I started painting a story I had told Tori when she was a child. (My sister had told me a version of the same story when I was 6!) Here is what I gave my daughter:








There were many other adventures in purple land...maybe someday I'll have time for another book.
I hope you're having a good weekend!

LTS Book


Well, it took a while but I finally finished the book Julie calls the long tall skinny journal. It was a lot of gluing, but I think it turned out really well. I'm enjoying this class and the art journaling class that Julie is teaching. Here are a few of the pages from the journaling class.


I hope everyone is having a peaceful weekend!

Graduation!

I finished the final project for the Layer Love class I've been taking. This painting was called the Big Gel and for a good reason! I put 2 layers of gel over the whole canvas! I love the look and have other ideas of ways to experiment with the gel.

We are off to see my newest grandson for the day. I hope you have a wonderful Sunday!
