Snoopy Knows

 

It's time to once again join Erika, aka BioArtGal and Chris, aka Pearshapedcrafting our hosts this month at Art Journal Journey.  Our theme is Inspired By (Eileen). 

I'm dancing in the street with Snoopy and Woodstock.

 

These two are so joyful and happy.

Snoopy has very good advice, too. In case you can't read it:

Being honest may not get you a lot of friends but it will always get you the right ones.

A little bling never hurts.

A little gold never hurts, either.

I started this page, which I created on 110 lb cardstock by seeing where to change the colors on the background based on where the colors on the card lightened.  I painted the top yellow and the bottom green using watercolors.  While the cardstock was drying, I removed the sentiment from the top of the recycled card.  I also computer generated the sentiment I created and colored it, also using one of the watercolors.  I then placed the glittery thread behind the card using glue dots.  I positioned the card on the background and adhered it in place.  I then added gold fluid acrylic paint around the sentiment and dipped a new pencil eraser in the same paint to create the dots at the top of the journal page.

This is Day 11 of 22 and I recycled an old Get Well card and glitter sewing thread that is too thick for my machine top stitch and bobbin.  I turned them into a journal page for Art Journal Journey because I was Inspired By recycled and repurposed materials.  Thank you so very much for your visit today and your support of this project.  We are now half-way through this recycling project.  I hope you have found something that inspires you to recycle, too.
