She is A Cover Girl

I made my Book Page Girlie into a Cover Girl. I took 2 pieces of 5" x 7" matt board and covered the boards with book pages, painted the covers orange, wiped the paint off with a baby whip, then made purple circles with a dixie cup, and used pink to put dots on the covers. I added my Girlie to the front cover. I used my Bind it all to bind the journal and added fabric, and paper beads for embellishment. I like the way my little journal turned out. :)

Book Page Girlie

I like this little book page girlie. Ink and colored pencils.
I will either make her into a card, or make another junk journal and put her on the cover of the journal.

Folk Art Girlie

For this 4 x 6 Mixed media piece. I drew a Folk Art Girlie, then colored her with colored pencils. I painted a canvas panel turquoise, then dipped a Dixie cup in purple paint and made purple circles for the background. I cut my girlie out and glued her to the canvas. Then added a few embellishments, and walla  her she is my Folk Art Girlie. :)

Journal

I made this fun Journal with 2 pieces of cardboard that I cut to 6" x 9". Then I covered the boards with book pages, then painted them turquoise. I wiped much of the paint off with a baby wipe, so that you can still see the printing on the book pages. I added a Zentangled Rose to the front cover, some fabric and paper beads to embellish the journal also. I made a button and band closure for the journal. I like the way that it turned out. :)

Basic Knit Socks

I finished knitting another pair of basic socks. I always keep my knitting bag right next to my chair in the living room, just in case I feel like knitting. For this pair of socks I cast on 60 stitches, used the classic heel and toe. I used a size 1 1/2 needle. Deborah Norville yarn.

Girlie Art Journal page

For today's Art Journal page, I drew a Girlie, and colored her in with colored pencils. I think that I used every shade of brown that I had for her hair.  I painted my journal page with pink acrylic paint, that I sprayed with water to lighten the color, my journal pages have had such a dark background color lately. I decided to lighten the background up a bit. I used rub ons for the wording " Do what you love. Love what you do. The butterflies and the green leaf are also rub on's. I added a bit of bling here and there on the page, just to add a bit of sparkle. :)
