… in 10 days!!!!
Don’t be afraid, I won’t let you all down but I decided to quit facebook
on May 31! You probably know I’m on it for about a month now, because
my “A Year in the Life of an Art Journal” group moved from ning to facebook,
but the facebook-group doesn’t really add something new…
I post my AYITLOAAJ-pages already in a Flickr album and on my blog and
I noticed the facebook-group does not really add anything to that.
So why stay there?
Why stay on facebook anyway (something I was never planning to do
in the first place.)
And then I read THIS last week, and I saw a documentary about it
on television, and that was the straw that broke the camel’s back…
I’m OUT on QUIT FACEBOOK DAY
So if you are my “friend” on facebook I will “unfriend” you…
If you want to speak to me you’ll have to come to my blog or e-mail
and I’m sure if you call yourself my friend you will STAY my friend!
On to some creativeness now…
..
You know I LOVE to make ATC’s!!!
This one is for
Wednesday stamper.
The challenge was
to use orange.
I painted a desert
landscape with a
sunset, to stamp
my cowgirl on.
It’s the ultimate
cliché image,
but I love it!
“I’m a poor
lonesome cowgirl,
and a long
way from home”
..

This ATC combines
two challenges!
Crazy Amigo provides
a freebie on their blog
to work with (the picture
of the lady with the book)
and the challenge at
My fave things was
“My fave book”.
(Nooo, the Bourne Identity
is not my fave book,
I just thought it was a
funny line to go with
this picture!)
I did read the Ludlum books
though… I used to read a lot!
And my favorite book?
I really couldn’t say… my bookcase is filled with favorites!!!
See the big dining table in front of the window?
See the light coming in?
I’m so glad the sun sets much later this time of year ’cause it means
that I can create here in the evenings!!
I used those extra hours to play along with Scrapping the Music
I grabbed my “Music Art Journal” (remember that?) and had a blast!
How could I not?
It was a song by one of my favorite bands: The Dixie Chicks.
Such a happy song!
Some days, you gotta dance!
The background paper is basic grey, as is the torn piece at the bottom.
I wrote the title with a black sharpie and red copic marker on yellow
cardstock and the rhinestones are from my stash (several brands)
The photo is a stockphoto… but it could have been me in that picture!
In the Summer I wear similar skirts and I always walk barefoot!
The little
blingies
doesn’t show
very well
on the big
photo,
so here’s
a detail
picture
taken from
an angle.
See them
shine in the
early sunlight!
This PAGE
makes me
wanna dance!!!
..
Do you know what “sleeveface” is???
NO?????
Check it out here!
It’s FUN, and my son and I are going to try this ourselves!
As you can see on the photo from my bookcase, the bottom shelves
are filled with old record sleeves. No doubt there must be some funny and
gorgeous images to use on there!
If you ever made sleeveface photo’s yourself, please leave me a link.
I would LOVE to see them!
..
The sun is shining and the temperature’s rising today!
I have some more work to do, but I might catch some sunlight on my face
in the late afternoon… it’s about time I get some colour on my legs too.
Hope your weekend will be beautiful!
I wish you sunny days!
Je t’embrasse!
