This little yellow sign (center of page) was on my daughter's dorm door, and she wanted to throw it away! I thought it would make a cute centerpiece for a journal page. It tells a college story. I remember all the little things my roommate and I put on our door. This might bring a smile to my daughter's face in the future if she looks through my journal. It makes me laugh-as silly as it is- and this page brings a smile to my face right now, even if the photo is a little out of focus.
Background was made with heavy gel, spray ink, stencils and some paint. I used some October Afternoon stickers and journaling tags and some leftover paper strips. I also die cut the rings. I colored them red, and luckily had a Copic marker that matched the red ring around the circle journaling sticker. I thought the western theme with the Happy Trails sticker is perfect- especially as the college years had wound down and she was on her way to new post- college adventures.
This week has been crazy for me. Last full school week- so much going on since graduation is on Friday.
I will be glad when it is all wrapped up. All I can say is I am so ready for some me time.
How about you? Do you get enough me time?
Thanks for visiting.
I am making a time to make things. When I can't make anything, I gets irritated and upset. Love the page you made. It is the small things we value are the interesting part on the making.
ReplyDeleteA little later, when we look through the pages, we can re-live the happy moments again. Of Course, your daughter is going to smile when she look though your journal.
Thanks for sharing
