NEW JOURNAL

Time to start fresh...new year.  Gotta love Michael's...buy one, get one free!

  

 I added a layer of gesso so that I could do something fun to the cover....

Gelli-art Print

I took some matte medium and glued one of the gelli prints I made this summer to the cover.  This is printed on deli paper.  I added another coat of matte medium on top of this and painted a sky....

I didn't really know what I was going to do on top of the gelli print....but I always love little houses....so I added one....and I sanded the whole page just a little bit...

Using molding paste and a stencil....I added the tree.  It's a very thin layer of molding paste.  I also added the windows and door.  It wasn't until I added the tree that I decided it was going to be a winter scene....originally, I was going to paint the tree....I love how the light was shining on my page as I took the photograph....

Now you see all of the snow that has been added and a quote as well.  The page has a slight shimmer now which you can't see as I added that to the page with some glitter powder....

 

"All journeys eventually end in the same place...home."

I grabbed this quote from our local, weekly newspaper.  It was the LOM (line over the masthead).
