ARTFUL JOURNEYS - Week #30 - Paint with your 3 fave colors AND

ARTFUL JOURNEYS - Week #30 - Paint with your 3 fave colors AND then stamp thru a stencil over the top of it!

As you can see I didn't follow this weeks prompt like a good girl. Nope I went off the grid a bit. I did some sample of using a stamp on a stencil but dummy me was using block stamps and not foam (slapping hand against forehead, DOH!!!)

But I do love how my page came out. I only really used one color of paint the blue and very little of it at that. I use black paint to make the beginning of my circles and some red paint on an end of a toilet paper roll and then I broke out my gellatos. I did use an alpha stencil on the inside of the circles and the red ink diamonds. I also used a wood block alpha stamp on background as well. The crazy girl is a part of a collage sheet from Tumble Fish Studio. I also make my own wordart bits.

Here is are a couple other pages  I made in an art journal book I am working on.

I used my Golden high flows acrylics in this one and my neocrayons.

I had a few butterfly die cuts my dear friend, Lynn set me. I also used my Golden high flows acrylics and neocrayons, I love this combo of media. 

• I used a couple art postcards and lots of wrapping paper in this one.

I used my new stencils and alpha stamps. I even drew my own flowers.

One of my dear artsy friends, Skye asked ME to help her out with 10 other artsy gals to make a page for a calendar she is going to have printed up and we will sell them. How flipping cool is that. So here is mine for the month of August.

The vintage gal is from one of  Holliewood Studios kits. The alphas I printed up they are a freebie at MischiefStudios.  I really love how she came out.

Here are some ATC's I also made. 

Well that is it for this week, thanks for stopping by and hope to see you soon.

ARTFUL JOURNEYS - Week #29 - Bucket List

ARTFUL JOURNEYS - Week #29 - Bucket List

I wasn't even going to do this weeks prompt due to some personal issues that were pretty upsetting and didn't think I would find the strength do even manage it but I did.

I want for nothing except for one thing and I know in my heart it can not be.

R.I.P My big beautiful girl, Bella

ARTFUL JOURNEYS - WEEK #26 Ice cream!!!!

ARTFUL JOURNEYS - WEEK #26 Ice cream!!!!

Normally I would be all over this prompt but unfortunately one of my hubbys, Larry brother passed on and then two days later his brother in law pass too. So this was not a good week in our home.

I did manage to doodle my prompt! 

Don't know how it happen but my creme feel off the page, lol!!

I only used my Derwent colored pencils (intense) and my trusty fave's Bic's Inkjoy colored pens. Those babies write on anything and I love using them in my art journaling.

I also made two altered CD's this week.

I don't normally decorate my envies but I happen to make this one all spice, LOL 

Oh and I made a ribbon doll too just for fun and am sending it to a dear friend, 

so I packaged it up in a naked mail. My mailman got a big giggle seeing it.

I made a American themed PLP :) Going up for sale at Artful Express

I will have some ATC's as well.

Well that about wraps it up for me this week. Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you soon!

New ATC's and PLP's

Made some new ATC's and PLP's this week. I do sell some over at ARTFUL EXPRESS.

I've been blessed to be able to sell some of my ACEO's and PLP either full decorated or plain and you can decorate them.

The four above was made on a double page watercolor paper. I loved it and need to get more.

With these PLP sets I decorated on in rockabilly art and the other I left plain.

here are some ATC's or ACEO's since I do sell them.

here are some ATC backgrounds I made too. 

Just playing around after I seen a video tut on how to use one stencil over another.

This page I made with tons of happy mail goodies.

OMG!! I'm starting to hoard paints LOL!!!!

I made a ribbon doll with some tutu material I got from Lynn.

 Speaking of that double page watercolor paper. Here is the cardboard from the back of it. I got to use my new James and Marilyn stencils.

Made some plain PLP backgrounds again using my new James and Marilyn stencils. I love'em!!!!

I got them over at Ebay, A seller called Black Jax Custom Stencils.

 Here is another art journal page I made using some new Golden Paints.

 Yep I found this cute little dude in some junk mail!

This is an ATC I made for a swap over at, Artful Mail Group

Another ATC I made with some hometown pride!
