July 11th-We spent the day at the beach & I art journaled in the sun-awesome! I started some backgrounds mainly. My main art today is a scrapsprint layout I did when I got home. It is from my ScrapbooksPlus DT buddy Deborah. She also got me using hipstamatic on my hubbies iphone-way cool! Here is the layout she did of us on the way to Inspired:
Here is my copy: Chipotle num! I used a piece of the takeout menu as a pocket & put a gift card/tag in it with journaling. The word background is actually their chip bag which I stained-use/reuse!
July 10th- Did an art journal session with the kiddies. The technique was distress inks & stencils, the subject what do I want to do this summer.
July 9th- We had a staff crop & I worked on a class I had taken with the fabulous Susie Bentz. The 12x12 is in a shadow box & the album comes out of it from behind the insert. I still have photos to add but maybe 1 day it will actually be on my wall.
July 8th-I got in my garden which the flowers are managing to stay relatively alive & took some photos. This happy butterfly landed on the cornflower I had just planted-I did thank her!
These hosta flowers are just so lovely & yet they seem melancholy.
July 7th-It was one of those days where I just felt the need to beat myself up. I was crabby & doing the whole self doubt thing. Finally I asked myself-why? It was then I realized I hadn't eaten anything since breakfast & it was after 3pm. This page was inspired by that!
Apparently you need some glucose in your body-what a concept. I had something to eat & almost immediately the blues went away. Yay.
