Journal 52

What a challenge this week was for my Journal 52 page.  I'm not sure just why this challenge...."restrictions" became a brain twister for me.  One simple shape and one color, plus black and white............quite simple really, since I like geometric designs. 

 

This is really my second page, as I tore out the first one....LOL  This time I chose a square, and since I had scraped black, leftover paint, on the page I went with that as a background.  With a white gel pen, on an extremely dry page, I outlined the square then inched it around to make a fan effect.  I had already ruined a page by painting the color directly onto the page...um...er.. one of the mistakes anyway.  So I painted the red onto a piece of cs graduating the shades with white and black, cut the squares to fit and glued them down. Now was that so hard??

 

Here is the first page, what a mess it became, although I do like the circle design, the process was a disaster!

week 9 reject

I normally would try to "fix" or alter this kind of mistake, but it just wasn't going to happen this week.  Sometimes it is just better to start over.  I'm keeping the reject and will cut it up for something else, even with all the modeling paste on it.

Hope your week has been a good one, only one more day until the weekend!

Today promises to be an other warm sunny day, and I need to get back to pulling weeds, transplanting some flowers and getting ready to plant so veggies........but more of that later..
