All I can say is WOW!! This is just amazing.. love, love, love this!! I got your public comment when you got back, Ive been meaning to check in on you... hope all is well!!
Well I have been looking and looking for you to come back on here. So...finally you are back and right back to your awesome layouts!! This is wonderful and shows your creativity! Love it!
So creative and original. This is going to my favs. Reminds me of POP art~Andy Warhols screenprints! I might give this techinque a try. Thanks for sharing the idea.
I love the altered pic! AND WELCOME BACK! I was so terribly worried about you! I too have such a renewed sense of faith since being on this site. I used to be full of so much sarcasism, people are starting to notice I try to find good things to say instead of the old sometimes negative me.
SOOOOOO glad to see you back! You'd warned us after the LO of your brother that it had wiped you out and it might be a while before you were back ... so just kept looking for you. AND this LO ... what a beautiful way to announce your return!! I just absolutely LOVE this ... you are SOOOO creative!!!! Again ... GOOD to see you!
WOWOWOWOWW!!! This is so awesome. At first I thought it was digital, but then I read your journaling. I am so impressed with your creativity!!! This rocks!!! On the balance side ... welcome back, sis... we're glad you have found *some* balance in this dysfunctional world. Glad you got your gardening started and wow about all the housework you've been doing (...can we rent you?) So sorry about the hard time with your brother's anniversary {{hugs}} to you. ... I still can't get over how fantastic this is with all the different papers, etc. It's gone right into my favs!!!!
HEY SCRAP SISTERS and BROTHERS!!I've been gone awhile.Springtime always brings me around to cleaning the garden and adding to it.I redid the bathrooms:spackling,priming,painting,redoing the hardware and replacing the rugs,throwing out unused or expired meds,etc......all on my own. :) The one year aniversary of my brother's death had sucked my heart dry and work has increased due to a dear friend (and co-worker) diagnosis of lymphoma.I'm on vacation now and had time to "BALANCE" myself with more creativity and spiritual growth.It is a good feeling.......I missed my community/neighborhood scrappers. The warmth and compassion has given me a drive and renewed my faith in the kindness and strength of strangers.Global sisterhood ROCKS!!!I used various scraps and stickers over one year old.This project didn't take nearly as long as it may seem nor was it hard.......I took a photo of myself and cut it in half after enlarging it.I was too lazy to dig thru clutter to look for my tracing paper so I used a scrap of velum to place on top of the unused portion of the photo(yes,I do have a crooked smile in real life).I then drew around various areas of light and dark of my skin.I cut them out and traced them on the colors I wanted to use starting with with lightest color as the paper to tape/glue the pieces on.I used Basic Grey paper to be my hair when it is down(at work my hair is always up). It took some trial and error but it was what I wanted to achieve....a representation of my bohemian lifestyle balanced with my rsponsibilties.I have also worked on 3 LOs of my niece ...they will be posted this weekend.May you find your center/balance today and everyday,love you guys,Paula.....peace
