Art journal Friday and a little of this and that :)

Its Friday!  Just a quick post..cuz I am doing the "happy dance" since I am leaving to babysit my new grand daughter today! 
Oh yeah....she IS THE CUTEST baby ever..."Layla"..
Sharing my art journal page with "art journal everyday" Julie Balzer's blog:
Started with gesso, then some acrylic paints smeared on with a credit card..sketching my girl..doodling..and stenciling with some of Julie's stencils by the "crafter's workshop"..and please forgive the "shadow" of the grass..that is where I took the pic!  yikes! just noticed that!
Oh..then I had to use this cool magazine image..thought it "fit" here.. and added some printing and journaling and ofcourse my trusty white uniball signo pen. :)  I finished off by finger painting on a little gesso around the images.  All kinds of stuff going on here!  ALSO = Linking to "Paint Party Friday". + "Help Me Ronda" Palazzari's blog to create daily.  Thanks for looking and hope your weekend is great!

  7. Jane, I would love to be a fly on the wall when you create your journal pages. They are so bright and beautiful. I could just visualize you smearing the gesso around and using the old credit card. The results are beautiful.

  19. OH my goodness I always adore your pages but the baby OH MY Goodness what a beauty! You must be over the moon. And her name is Layla. I know my husband would have named a girl that if he was lucky enough to have a girl. He is a big Eric Clapton fan.
    Fantastic pages. I wish I had your talent and imaginations. TFS
    Hugs,
    Linda

  21. Haven't been here in forever! Caught sight of that gorgeous baby and had to come take a peek! I'm a Grammie now, too, and its the best except mine is over 400 miles away. I still manage to see her daily in pics and video chats and quarterly visits---because I just can't stand not seeing her!

    Your journal is wonderful! I've never tried one, but I've sure given it some thought!

  22. Brilliant colors in the great two-page spread, Jane! There is so much detail, depth and texture, it was difficult to take it all in.

    Sweet, sweet Baby Layla!
