Its Saturday AGAIN :)...busy busy! Baby son is back at college :( and time is flying once again. Why do they drive you nuts at home then you miss them like crazy when they leave??.. Thinking of the last days of summer I made this art journal page in my little book.
Okay...so this was my first attempt with my watercolors! I had these purple flowers floating around in my head and I just fenced them in with a black sharpie. The bigger flowers were hand cut from some painty scraps. I used
Julie Balzers' cloud stencil, some gesso thru sequin waste and some magz cut-outs. The sun is ofcourse "sun design" image from
Stampotique. I am adding this to:
Art journal everyday, and Artists in
blogland.
Next is my "Viking girl" tag (
image from Roc Nicholas) . She was paper pieced, colored with copics and put on an inked up tag. I have also used
"sun design" and "squiggle arms". Inks are Dylusions and Adirondack color wash sprays. Did a little sewing to finish it up! TFL and hope you are enjoying a pleasant weekend....

There's such a wonderful sense of vibrancy and aliveness in these terrific pieces. Love the bubble wrap stamping - that's always such a super fun technique!

Love your tag and journal page. I just bought that cloud stencil--I like how you used it as well as the watercolored flowers. That's a technique I'd like to try more often!
Great pages and tag. My daughter just left for her senior year of college. Where did the time go? Visiting from AIB. xo
