Fabric art journal page for Judy

Well I am catching up a little and maybe even a week ahead of time. Imagine that, finally!  I am in a monthly Art jourmal page exchange and each month is just what that month means to us.  This  is my page for February and I did add crystals but you really cannot see them that well.  I love the look of pink and brown together so I just added lace, trim, crystals, a few words and of course chocolate...Judy I hope you like it..

ATC February

Morning!  I finished my February ATCs for the Fiberantics group that I am in.  Our theme this month was "transparency"  which I was trying to think of something different for this month with keeping it simple.  Because as you all know I can go over the edge and just keep adding and adding...since my word for this year is "simplify"  this is what I came up with...not that it was hard just time consuming but I am satisfied with the results.  Now I have one more thing to complete which is my February journal page and I can finish my grandson's quilt....
Old  Fashion Screen Door:



What I did was use gesso on each card then ink stamped the background and used a  flower stamp in achieval black so there was something to see other than color.  I cut and glued the no-seum screen down and used thin pieces of wood cut to size  and ink glazed to make the old fashion frame...added the bead for a door knob and called it done....I hope you enjoy taking a peek and I thank you!

Mixed Media January Journal page

First let me wish everyone a very Happy Valentines Day and I really hope you get to enjoy the day with your loved ones! It has been a very busy month so far  between doctors and taking my m-i-l to the er for falls that could have been prevented if she would use her walker, I am already exhausted. That being said I will be going to my Modern guild this morning and that is always a pleasure to spend time with our group here in Chattanooga.  I am still missing my DF Linda it is like everywhere I go she should be there but hopefully I will see her in April and we will get a chance to catch up.

Anyway I am in a mixed media group and the theme this year is what each month means to me:  so here is my month of January...take care and have fun.....


I used gesso, watercolor;  glitter; white marker; black archival ink and washi tape...I hope the lady that receives it really enjoys it.  It was allot of fun to do.
