F is for Freedom...

Oh my gosh it's been a fun night of creating! First of all I got my Drama Queen collection from SiSTV late last night and it is absolutely fabulous! So much vintage goodness! I took a picture of the contents which I will post tomorrow. I've been playing with some different ideas for this collection, but I haven't finished anything yet. Maybe tomorrow...

In the meantime, I did finish my "F" page for my ABCs of Me journal - also known as "A Year In The Life of an Art Journal" project. This time, there was no given word for the letter F - we were to come up with our own, so I chose FREEDOM... (click to see the details)
I used acrylic paint in orange and magenta for the background (kept the brush pretty dry to let the texture of the paper come through), orange oil crayon around the edges, a Stampin Up background stamp, SiSTV gaffer tape for the tab, magazine images and journaling pens. I decided not to draw lines for journaling this time, to allow my words to float more freely on the page (in keeping with the theme).

That is it for today - but I will be back tomorrow with more to share! Have an awesome, artsy, inspiring day my friends!

Well, there is something to be said about reading your blog from home instead of behind the firewall at work. I love your Cat Stevens video!!!
