I used some of my new painted journal pages to make a spread about our weekend house guest. I hated to see him go! We also enjoyed getting to see his parents, Dave and Emily .
This one uses a Moroccan-style whimsical border from Violette's book Journal Bliss. The frolicking couple are yard ornaments from a garden catalog that I painted black instead of the rusty copper that they were originally. This one makes me chuckle!
I used another bright painted background for a spread about my recent trip to the Art Institute of Chicago. I like the layered look of the background. I printed with bubble packaging, net bags, and bottle lids, as well as a commercial butterfly stamp.
I have not been totally neglecting my Zentangle journal. Here is a Zentangle bloom. Kind of busy, but it was fun to do. I have been trying some ideas with my Zentangle hand, but have not arrived at anything I like yet as far as an art quilt.
Here is another background just waiting for some collage, doodling or journaling. Right now it looks like a colorful fringed stripper bra, no? If I added some glitter?
Maybe this weekend in the mountains will inspire some journaling.
