Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

It's weekend, enjoy! 
I'm planning on having a restful weekend, I need it!

Today I am sharing 2 art journaling pieces made during the LB taster lessons.

The first one is the 'Inside your head' journal spread inspired by Dyan Reavely, which I very much enjoyed. I used autumn colours, a picture from Dyan, lots of scraps and stenciled patterns and stamped the eyes. This was really fun!

The second piece is a journal page inspired by a lesson from Shemi Dixon, the textures  of me:

Once again, I used autumn colours, over a background which was stenciled with texture paste, with additions of corrugated card and scraps of cloth and netting. I added buttons, too, to give more texture. This was such fun to make, a real art-play session!

And some pictures of a beautiful sunrise, once again from Google reversed:

Have a great weekend, take care,

Thursday Friday Post

Hi Everybody!

I had a great day today, and visited  friends in a neighbouring town.  I travelled by tram and bus, and enjoyed it. And the made delicious scones especially for me, some with strawberry jam and some with cheddar cheese, yummy!

The piece I am sharing today was inspired by the fun mark-making lesson from Holly McLaughlin. I really enjoyed creating various layers of marks on a pre-painted background, then I added a layer of collage and lastly my quirky girl:

This piece was made inspired by the lesson from Leaca Young, where we made little packages of various papers and topped it with painted leaves and flowers with positive intentions. The pocket was made from designer paper and sewed together. I have made a heap of these pieces, they make great collage fodder!
