August complete and September ready, along with a final entry for AJJ

It's time to share my monthly calendar.   August is complete, but I have no idea why I chose those flowers for August.  If you want to see how boring my life is, feel free to read the minutia.  As I've mentioned in the past, I fill out my calendar page each evening, so that's why I decided to share a cute animal sticker for the 31st.

September, 2019 is ready to be written in.  When I think of September, I think of apple picking time.  Since I had an apple stamp, it was the logical choice for my decoration.

Since my calendar pages are so wimpy compared to several of my friends calendars, I have one final entry at Art Journal Journey where Gill of Gibby Frogett Craftations has been this month's host.  In case you didn't know by now, her theme is Anything With Eyes.

In case you need to translate, it reads "I have my eye on you!"

When I first saw this eye, I was taken by it.  I scanned it, then printed it on my laser printer.

I decided to cut around it, but after I had cut no more than 1/4 of the way around, I regretted my decision.  It took me forever to cut it out, and of course, I had to rest my hand several times.

I love how the iris shows the white spot.

It really draws you into the image.

For this page, I started by cutting the eye I had scanned and printed.  When finished, I  assembled the very simple entry onto black construction paper, then included the sentiment I chose for the entry.

Thanks for spending a few minutes with me today as you looked at my wimpy calendar, as well as my final entry this month at Art Journal Journey. I also want to take this opportunity to thank Gill for her excellent hosting skills this month.  Not only did she offer some incredible journal pages, she was great at welcoming others to the AJJ party.  Thanks again, Gill.
