summer days

 

    I finally did it...I retired.

                                           

my whispers journal

     I haven't posted here in a while but that doesn't mean I haven't been working. I found 

   Kelly Rae Roberts book ,Taking Flight, years ago. It's a wonderful book full of inspiration

   and new techniques. I picked it up again to read and decided I would try every project.

   This is the first one... creating a whispers art journal using hardback book covers as a

   canvas.

 

        This is the front cover...

       Inside pages...

                                                                                                 and the back cover...

        

         The next part is a technique from artist DJ Pettit for painting on fabric. I decided to make

       a banner to hang on my window. 

 

                                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 

 

 

       So that's what I'm working on now...oh plus my winter ripple blanket that is. I also need to

      put holes in my journal and tie it together with the black velvet ribbon I bought, but I'm

      having a hard time finding the cutting tool I need.  I'll keep trying and post a picture of it

      when it's all done.
