it’s AJ TOOSDAY!

Hiya sistahs.. it’s AJ toosday and the theme was to add a vintage photgraph to your page.. either a relative or a complete stranger you have “adopted”….

here we go!

here is my page .. I used lots of elements here including a photo I downloaded of a mother and daughter.. some script, tape, paper.. yum! Jayden and I were going through some homework "issues" that were driving me crazy! So I wrote about them 🙂

Here is Pinky's page.. of her grandma's baby picture!!

Here is Violet's page

Ok now for next week’s theme?  TAPE.  I want you to use MASKING TAPE, WASHI TAPE, SCOTCH TAPE.. on your page…

it’s MONDAY.. ho hummmmm

and I wanted to thank all da sistahs for DA overwhelming response to our purge-athon..LOL.. crazy! so thank you 🙂

I was commissioned last week to make a painting for a little girls room.. I thought I would share it here..  I LOVE it and my Jayden was extremely irritated that I sold it ..LOL .  I then told her the story about the shoemaker and his lack of shoes.  She refused to “get it”..LOL.. so now I am painting for her.

here it is and upon delivery, I was advised I had to make 2 more for her wall..LOL  So I am very busy!  One of my goals this year is to get my artwork “out there”… to share my passion with others and perhaps sell a piece or two even though I can’t part with any of them..LOL.  The demand is there so of course my friends and my husband are pushing me to have the courage 🙂

So this piece is definitely mixed media.. modeling paste, vintage wallpaper, acrylics, vintage children’s dictionary contents, pencils, pens.. the kitchen sink..LOL.   The picture does not do this justice but at least it gives a little idea 🙂

As soon as she got home, I got a picture of where the picture was placed.. with a little note saying we need 2 more..LOL

 

Another thing I wanted to share was a colouring tutorial by Elaineabella!  It’s on splitcoast and you can find it HERE.  She is using MATILDA ON HER SWING and it is so amazing of her to take so much time for this 🙂  Hope you like it!  you can find it here.  If you go, just leave a message for us in there showing us that you were there n’k?

Tomorrow is AJ TOOSDAY.. don’t forget your entry 🙂 and to post a comment on BELLARIFIC FRIDAY’s post below this one for a chance to win $10 in bella buckeroonis!

Mwah to da sistah’s who like a Monday post 🙂
