Life is Beautiful...

I must say I am having so much fun with Marit's Art Journaling class!!! I finished my third assignment! Here's how it turned out...
I used tons of gel medium on this one! The background is sheet music. Then I took a bunch of white tissue paper pieces and sprayed them each with all the different colors of red, pink and orange that I have! The little girl is from a vintage children's book, the leaves are cut from scraps of all different kinds of paper, the title letters are rubons, and the white dots are made with a sharpie. It took awhile to finish this one because each layer of gel medium had to dry before putting more on.

I am getting REALLY antsy to get my scraproom organized! I'm tired of working in a mess! I think I am going to spend some time tonight working on it. We shall see how far I get!

Now the only question is.... Do I take a nap before I start????? HA.

Come on back tomorrow for another update! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Impressive. The little girl is so cute. I don't know if I have the patience to do this one. I will do it, but we will see how long i wait between layers.

Yours came out wonderfully.

Have fun with the organization project.
