Shine on!

In honor of my FAVORITE season, on this beautiful Summer Solstice, I am full of sparkle and shine!  
 
I was inspired by a mixed media picture on Pinterest, and I made this today!  I used my homemade gesso to add crumpled tissue paper to a 12x14 board, and added this collage of color and inspiration!  I love my new permanent paint pens in white and gold ~ Bring on Summer!!! ☀️😎💛

Gratitude Board

In an effort to bring gratitude and happiness to the forefront with my family, I put up my antique hook board for my family to write down various things, silly or serious... We've had friends who've come over add to it also and it's been a fun addition to our kitchen!   
And some of the cards say...

Art journal sample ~ monoprinting

I finished my art journal sample snd had it bound at Office Max... Here are a few of the pages.  I used a mix of craft acrylics, and love using metallics! I wish the bottom picture showed as much depth as you see in person on the brown page. It has layers of gold & copper...   Too much fun ~

Calendar Samples ~ monoprinting

I finished my samples in time for display so parents can sign their kids up for camp.  They turned out so fun, so I had to share! All on 110 pound cardstock ~
