Hi...So guess what? I am STILL diligently working on my playing card art journal that Emily is hosting over on her blog. Whenever I can squeeze some time in between all the craziness going on in my fun world, I jump right on it!
So here's what I have so far...
Prompt #11 was "Your Initial."
Front ...
Then week 12's prompt " I Believe." The color are paint chips glued onto the card punched with a Stampin' Up punch.
I then am going to jump to week 14's prompt which is "Bird." I, of course, used one of my favorite bird stamps. It's the one from a design of mine that was made into a real life rubber stamps with justjohanna. He he he...that's STILL just tickles me seeing something that was once in my head made into a stamp!
This is the bird outline stamp. The inside is UTEE embossing powder.
Then on the back I used the bird stamp.
I also got week 15's card done. That prompt was "Parents."
Just lots of paint and scratchin' on this one. :-)
There is also the prompt "Get Someone Else to Contribute" and so I gave a card to my dear friend Heidi and asked her to contribute. She just made her spare room into a studio for herself so it's so wonderful to hear stories about the artsy things she's starting to do! She and I are getting together Friday, May 11 for an artsy craftsy shopping/craft (and likely wine infused!) girls night. I can't wait!
So just a few more to do and I'll be caught up! This is SO SO SO FUN! So who's LOVIN' seeing how fat and chunky their journal is starting to look?
Very nice, very nice!~ I love your Initial one and the bird/stamp one the mostest!
I need prompts. Prompt me? He he!

That 'm' is cool, the way you did it with newsprint.
Steve promised me when we got married that life would just keep getting better and better.....and it has!
I have some Utee that I bought ages ago and still haven't tried.
I like the 'parents' blue card too.
I can just see you, creating up a storm in your craft room :)
