Studio Calico, The Paperie, YearLong Album class, YLA2014

I’m sorry.

I’ve really been the biggest kind of slacker around here, especially since I promised this post weeks ago! But you’ll all forgive me, right? ๐Ÿ™‚

For the June LO we did a patterned paper background, a rarity for me, and added all sorts of bits and pieces from previous classes:

06 - june

Some cork hearts and gold stars right on the pics:

Chipboard hearts and the always present arrows on the edges of the pages:

And we layered flair with October Afternoon label stickers – I love how they fit right together!

For fun, we played with Black India Ink – the intensity of it when spattered is the best! Also the best? How one spot landed right where I needed a dot for my “j” – score!

june embellies

The next class is coming up next week and I’m excited for this one; we have fabulous stickers and a great divided page protector to play with!

Love You, You Rock, You are the Best

Mixed media, YearLong Album class

This is – inadvertently – my second post today. I had scheduled my Art Journal post for yesterday but it didn’t go live. Apparently, it wasn’t scheduled after all! Oh well, it just means you get two lots of eye candy today!

For the first time, I finished the LO’s I made for the YearLong Album class. I always leave these blank so people can add their own spin – organize the pictures, add embellishments, etc. – whatever way they want. The difference this year is that the class participants are doing their own thing anyway and I love it! It’s amazing to look around and see how different everyone’s interpretations of the same instructions are.

Anyway, I made my mixed media layered backgrounds and finished them off with pics of Molly and Gabe from March. My finishing touched for Molly’s were extra paper from the starter kit, wood veneer, a doily, hidden journaling, and stickers:

april spread - simply the best

I wanted Gabe’s to flow with hers, make them look like they belongs together in the album, so he has many of the same elements:

april spread - love you, you rockI love the technique to make this background so I will definitely be using it again. Crossing my fingers that everyone is going to love doing them on Sunday and think they’re worth the inky fingers!
