Day Twenty-Eight - Page Spread

It's the final day of Thing-A-Day. This month was just sooo busy, and I am gladly welcoming March.  If you hear a loud sigh, that would my exhale, letting go of a lot of stress that has built up this winter. I am so excited for spring, and the month to come AND for the madness of to be behind me. Good things are ahead. Very good things. I can feel it :D

I woke up this morning ready for March, and it wasn't until the day was well on it's way that I realized "oops, I still have one more day left for Thing-A-Day". With that in mind, today I present to you another page from my mini book. The left page is cut out of the fabric paper I made a few days ago.

It's been so mad these last few weeks that I honestly haven't even been able to keep up with everyone elses posts. I look forward to doing that this next week. I hope everyone had a very productive and inspired month! I had a great time contributing and completing my third Thing-A-Day. Thanks for following along. ciao!

Thing Twenty-five: Sharpie Skyline

Sharpieskyline

I've always loved art where people tear up books and make designs using the pages. I grabbed a book off the library "for sale" shelf and created this night skyline scene with sharpies. It's all about guys and girls and New York nights.

Day Twenty-Five - More pages

One thing I've been thinking about this month is how I wish that Thing-a-Day was in the summer, when there was plenty of sunlight and hours to work in daylight after I get home from work.

Day Sixteen - More Pages

A day doesn't pass when I don't make something. Often I am working on many, many things each day. I feel bad only getting to only show the "things" I've made within a half hour (per the Thing-a-Day rules this year) and not the works in progress, or completed items that I've been working on over days, weeks, months, etc. So, with that in mind, here is another spread from my mini book. Nothing special. I try not to think it out, but just go.

Day Fifteen - Another Page

Today I did a couple more pages in my little book. The left page is covered in metallic blue star stickers and the right is watercolored, then sprinkled with salt for texture. On top of that was silvery glitter pen and pastels in swirls.

When I went to take the picture at first the camera didn't focus. I retook it, but when I saw the blurry one I actually liked it because it kind of went with the dreaminess of the image, so I put them together for a diptych.
