Alison's Journal Pages

I am part of a wonderful group of Artist's particpating in a journal titled THROUGH THE EYES OF AN ARTIST. After a few weeks of procrastination I finally completed Alison's journal page. Three down, 10 journals to go(I think) and the next two are here for Elena and Sharon.

With Alison's journal I decided to go light and dark and with a little simplicity to it all. I felt that this time less is more. I have even found a few new things that I used on my journal and repeated here as well. Using my own glimmer mists and my cuttlebug to make the little photo corner. The one thing I did this time was sew on a page. Normally I sew fabric but I did three different colours around the green page that was sprayed.

I must say that I am very happy with the result and looking forward to working on the next two. But I also have to get my covers and bio page done for my I DREAM IN COLOURS journal which has to be posted by June 1.

Circle Journal

Here it is, a little bit late but I have finally done it. My pages for Lee's journal. Some of you may know that I am part of a circle journal with 13 others around the world. I sat on this for ages and here is my contribution to Lee's journal. I love the first page. I like the second page but it is not my favourite. I decided to do some hand-journalling which I doubt I will do again. This is what I don't like. But generally we are the most critical of ourselves.
After watching a tutourial on another blog I used my Glimmer Screen Stencils for the bird. Somehow I can see me getting more.

Beautiful Katie

In April I was asked to teach a class using Perfect Pearls. I also had to do a layout using them. Thankfully I had the photos already. These are two of my favourite photos from 2008 of my daughter Katie. What I love about these is that they were both taken on my mobile phone. This layout had at least 4 different ways of using perfect pearls. My favourite is mixing it and making my own little bottles of glimmer mist.
