Hi everyone. We have reached the end of November. Boy did it fly.
More importantly, I want to thank Wendy for being such a wonderful hostess at Art Journal Journey this past month. I really enjoyed your bird theme a lot! Thanks for hosting!
I'm back with one last page for Wendy's bird challenge at Art Journal Journey. Today I did a bit of dissecting of a gold paper seal, and I added in some birds instead. I also used a sheet of printed paper on top of my watercolor paper. Then I used some crackle paste from a pot I came across. I wasn't sure if it was any good anymore, but it did work! I added some black ink to age my page. And some paper tape. Finally I added my royal seal, the die cut swan and the stamped and fussy cut queen. The quote came from the same set as the women did.
And I am also linking up to the last post for this year's Art Everyday Month. I really enjoyed visiting all you ladies who participated online and meeting/remeeting some of you. Sorry, I do don't do instagram and don't usually post to Facebook so for those of you who joined in there, I'm sure I missed some nice art. and thank you Leah for hosting!
Now we are just about onto the December!
Thanks for visiting!
awesome page! love all the textures
ReplyDeleteWonderful journal page, love the crackle-effect, it turned out really well. looks like part of the English Royal seal in the middle, like how you changed it. Have a good start in the new week, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteBeautifully elegant page.
ReplyDeleteYes this month flew by. I do like your royalty art piece. Wonderful execution. Have a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous way to end the month at both links, Erika. I absolutely love the final entry for Wendy's theme at Art Journal Journey. It feels so soft and romantic.
ReplyDeleteIt's always SO good to see a familiar face at Leah's blog, too. One year, I was about the only person who showed up for AEDM on the blog, since so many others go to other social media sites, of which I don't belong. I was thrilled you joined again, dear friend.
I also saw on Wendy's blog that you have done some digital art. I simply have never even tried it, even though I have a full blown, albeit very old PhotoShop. Hope all is well in your world and I'll see you later for T Tuesday, too.
Another lovely page Erika, I really enjoyed hosting this month on AJJ. Thank you for all your support. Have a wonderful December.
ReplyDeleteHugs Wendy.
Wow! Fabulous texture here Erika! It has been a great theme hasn't it? Hugs, Chris
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika for your Royalty! The y sure are, all of them. ´
ReplyDeleteLike you I like the blogg world best. It is more personal then both IG and FB.

A wonderful piece for the final day of AEDM, Erika! It's been so nice following along with you. I hope to stay in touch too...will add your blog to my side-bar.
