Journal Page 11

For this page I experimented with adding magazine page cutouts.


Journal Pages 4-7

So it appears I didn't post a few of my journal pages so I'll do that now.

For this one I didn't want to use any paint or mod podge.  I call it the dry technique.


For this one I used fabric for the first time on the mesh tree.


I added oil pastels this time for some light blue detailing.


For this one, I covered the corners with embroidery thread and then painted over it.

Chrome and Mint...A Match Made in Heaven

I experimented with two of my favorite polishes recently and came up with this really chic style.

Two accent fingers, and the rest have mint polish.  I created the bow on my thumb with a striper by first drawing a line at the bottom of my nail.  Then two loops at the top and two lines at the bottom.

The other accent nail is mint dots on a chrome base.

The bow is a little blurry in the picture...whoops.

For the Feels

As many of you may know, The Fault In Our Stars movie comes out tomorrow.  I decided, it being a potentially emotional film, to decorate a tissue box.  These are the steps I took, but you should go wild and use your imagination!

1. Paint base blue, it took two coats to cover how I wanted
2. Paint designs and quotes
3. Add stick on jewels (These didn't get into the picture)
