Hi everyone. Happy middle of the week. We're in the last few days of July (Really? Where did this month go to?) so I want to share my final journal page for Halle's challenge over at Art Journal Journey. By now you probably know her challenge is Fabric, Lace and Trims, Oh My!.
I kind of got carried away adding things to this page, and I'm not sure I like it all that much. However with my right shoulder still sore I decided just to go with it and not make another new page.
I did a lot of layering with papers and punch out images. I also added some paper lace to make a border. Then I realized that the background was a little too much for my stamped fashionistas, so I sponged on some gesso to tone that down. I also used some brighter colors to color in the styling ladies. They come from an old Inkadinkado clear set of stamps. The words come from an old Cornish Heritage Farms stamp set. I then added a felt flower that I pulled off of something I had, and I also glued down some chenille ric-rac. To finish those off I added the flat beads.
Thank you Halle for joining us as our host this month. I loved your theme because it caused me to get out some fabric. Sometimes I think about doing that and then I don't actually do it, so it was good to actually get it out. ❤👍😊 Plus, it was a really fun theme.
Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy the rest of your day.
