October Afternoon

This is my art journal, in an old book. It is in the beginning stages, and none of these pages are done. I am just PLAYING – I’m not criticizing myself, I’m not judging how they look. It is very freeing, and I’m enjoying it a lot!! I talked about where/how I was inspired in this post here. I hope you enjoy looking at these pages, and hopefully I will inspire YOU to play and be free!! I enjoy the fact that there is text already on the pages, so you don’t have an empty page just staring at you. Since it is an older book, I have been re-enforcing the spine with some old 7gypsies book binders tape I have had in my stash. I also have been tearing pages out here and there since the pages I am creating have some thickness to them, I need to make room so it will close a little bit.

I had a chance to make this card for a special friend of mine.. who couldn’t live any farther away. I had a lot of fun cutting the pendants out of some October Afternoon paper, adding a little Tim Holtz tissue tape, and stamping with a fun Lawn Fawn set I recently got!

Hope this put a smile on her face.

I’m back again with another tuesday trigger from moxie fab! This one is a two-weeker so there is plenty of time to play along, and I hope that you do!

Here is the inspiration this time

This time I was drawn to the colors and patterns.. and threw in a bird for good measure ;)

Supplies Used:

October Afternoon pattern paper (for the woodgrain)
Memory box notecard and pattern paper
Hero Arts bird, sentiment and background stamp
