Shine like the whole universe is yours (AJPs)

 These two pages were done about a week apart and it was only afterwards that I realised I had used the same wording stickers for both..."Shine like the whole universe is yours"
The first one I painted the entire page black and used a stencil to add gold metallic start to which I added a mix of white and sparkly dots...

While for the second one I used a dark blue background, and  another stencil - this time to add silvery moon wax

I like both and although they are very different, I think they still both suit the wording stickers and I am happy with my happy coincidence. I loved that JanuArty gave me the chance to simply play around without worrying about the finished result... or without even finishing a project at all. Just to do something creative every day was the aim...it is liberating. I  may try to keep this going...

Until next time

Lolly sticks


Here I am openly showing my addiction to ice lollies with a lolly stick based project. I have done several of these before but this idea was featured in the Savvy Supply School (from Mixed Up Creative Academy) with a sample project by Corrie Herriman  and that is what prompted this particular offering.
I decided to go grungy with this one and because it has been prompted by the savvy supply school I decided to try to use things lurking on my desk...including a torn die cut, some twine off cuts and even some left over hot glue swirls that were on my craft mat. (I did not try to colour these but you may spot them behind and in front of the bird)

It was a messy project but I enjoyed it and using supplies from around the house makes it so much easier to just play around...I am certainly freer than if I was working on a bought substrate that's for sure.

Until next time

Mysterious (AJP)

Back to basics with this simple art journal page offering. A mop up page, some finger painting, stamps and mark making added and I was pl...
