Constellations

Hi everyone. Happy Thursday to you.

Today I have a journal page that combines Jo's Snowy Winter theme at Art Journal Journey as well as Rain's  Art and Dinner Date theme of Constellations.

It is hard to combine those 2 themes as when it is snowing the sky is cloudy, and you can't see any constellations. Smile. 

But I did it anyhow.  I even made the sky look like an aura borealis. 

I started by inking my page black. Then on the top part of my page I sprayed red and pink inks. On the bottom I sprayed some white ink. The red and pinks are the color of my aurora borealis and obviously the white is the snowy ground.

In the middle of my page I used an acetate ancient looking sky chart.  As it must be night to see stars (unless of course you get hit hard over the head-smile),  I thought I'd show Mr Bear going for an early winter's night stroll. It's one of the last he'll take before he dens up to sleep for a few months. Mr. Bear is a  pre-printed chipboard image.

I added some silver painted wooden stars, a chipboard snowflake I stenciled on as well as some small confetti foam snowflakes. And I finished with a couple of lines of quotes.

And for the dinner part of Rain's Art and Dinner date this week, let me share some leftover's soup I recently made.

 

My husband and I had Thanksgiving dinner at a family member's home, and although that was lots of fun, we  didn't have any leftovers. The weekend after Thanksgiving one of our local grocery stores was selling halves of a turkey (it was cut the long way), so we bought one. We had 3 meals from it, and then all that was left was the leg and the wing. The other day I pulled the meat off of those pieces, and then I tossed these leftovers  into some turkey stock. To finish the soup, I cleaned out the veggie drawer of the fridge. Here you have it, some turkey and veggie soup.

That's all for me. I hope you have a good Thursday.
