Spider man journal

I call his my spider man journal because before I completely altered this

it was a spider man kids book! Haven't you ever seen a book , loved the shape but didn't care for the title or the entire book. That was one of those books for me so I altered it into a art journal with some decoupage, gesso, & lots of distressing. I decided this will be my next class. Instead of calling it the spider man journal, its got to have a little more artsy sound to it which will be Mixed media journal. Sounds artsy enough! Anyway I hope you'll come an enjoy getting a little creative, & alot of messy with me on Sunday, October 2 at 12:30.I don't believe the picture shows how pretty it is so I will take it to the store for you to see in person. Hope to see you in class!

My Baby Inspiration

Okay, So for those of you who know me knows that I don't have "babies" small ones that is. My Babies just happen to be 23 yrs. old! When I hit that creative block, I can find a picture of my girls & I'm back in my creative space. I did this page using tons of prima flowers. I also draped a chain from an old tarnished necklace at the bottom & loved the way it looked. All my paper was distressed just a little & very lightly brushed with my foam tim holtz tool. Mostly the edges of the pieces of paper. In this page I used the black soot distressing ink. Not bad for someone going from no inspiration to this beautiful page. I really love the way it turned out.

Back from Texas

I'm back from Texas! I've been back 2 1/2 weeks & I just now feel like I'm getting back into my routine. I was very busy & didn't get to do any scrapping while I was gone.I missed getting together with friends & this past Saturday my friend Kathy came over with some great pictures of her and her husband Frank. I decided to share the idea of the Donna Downey weaved page that I took the weekend before. It came out great! I took pictures to show off just how good it turned out. We used a different color palette all together. Nice & Bright. Good job Kathy!
