Still answering hard questions about myself in my "Book of Dreams" and still LOVING the not square edges. I still have a million and one ideas for page edges that I can't wait to try. It's just so exciting. Thank you Ingrid! I thought the "whiny" page I did earlier was difficult, but it turns out, thinking about nice things to say about yourself is even harder. When I thought about strength, the picture of "Rosie the Riveter" came to my mind and then the idea of plane panels with rivets. I started with a collage background and rubbed gray acrylic on with a damp baby wipe. I then used charcoal around the collage pieces and dry brushed with white acrylic. I then added Rosie, my journaling, and metal brads for rivets. I LOVE her.

What's More Difficult Than a "Whiny" Page?
A page about my strengths. That's what!

Great Page and Rosie fits perfectly. Love it.
ReplyDeleteWhiny pages are always easier I think. You did a great job on the strength one. I like the entire piece.
ReplyDeleteI am really looking forward to today, it will be lots of fun.
I came over from Kate's blog and so glad I did. You have some really cool journal pages, and I love the prayer flag you made for Kate. I'll definitely be back to visit again.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are keeping busy. Like the riveter chick. She reminds me of a chick pop-eye or something. Hope you are feeling better! : )
ReplyDeleteLove your pages...so inspiring!
