Art Journal
Acrylics, Collage, Stamping
These two pages in my journal were an exercise in layering colors. I love circles..these aren't the first ones I've done on a journal page. Sometimes I think I'm just going around in circles! It all started with a shiny, 2014 penny that the grocery clerk gave me with my change. It was so shiny, I decided that it couldn't be just thrown in my wallet. It is now glued to the outside of an envelope....
The envelope is attached to the page with washi tape and I put a tag in the envelope referencing where the penny came from and asking the question, "Is this a lucky penny?" What makes a penny lucky, anyway...that it will multiply a zillion times while you're sleeping? Or that having it will change your luck? I'm sure I've been handed a shiny 2014 penny in change on many occasions this year...but never paid any attention until this one...
Yesterday would have been my mother's 92 birthday, so on the back of the envelope I added a birthday message...I got the creativity gene from her...so I guess I am very lucky already....
