Sunny weather

 

It's time once again to join Chris of Pearshapedcrafting, our host this month at Art Journal Journey.  She has chosen All Kinds of Weather as her theme this month.

The forecast for today is sunny weather, unlike what I've given you in the past few days.

On a sunny day, we need to protect ourselves from the sun, as this vintage beauty has.

In case you need this translated, it reads "Let your umbrella protect you from the sun."

I had some leftover dyed ribbon and cheesecloth, so put them to good use.

I even assembled this rose 

that I hoped would compliment the lady's bouquet that looked more like poppies than roses.

As you can see, the cheesecloth is stretched behind the entire focal image.

Note both the lovely young lady and the background.

I started this journal page by coloring 110 lb cardstock with pink Staz-on reinker and 91% isopropyl alcohol.  To that I added the computer generated sentiment I outlined using a pink gel pen.  The ribbon and cheesecloth had already been dyed, or I would have done that at the same time I colored the page. I adhered the ribbon at the top and bottom of the page, then stretched the cheesecloth out from ribbon to ribbon using fabric glue.  I adhered the focal image using pop dots to raise it above the cheesecloth.  Finally, I assembled the rose and adhered it using my new tube of E6000.

Bleubeard and I would like to thank you for dropping by today.  We also hope to see you at Art Journal Journey with your own interpretation of All Kinds of Weather.

 

This is Day 10 of Art Every Day Month (AEDM) and I created a journal page in my art journal.

I have an appointment today to get my J & J booster.  My city doesn't want people under 65 to get a booster IF they have received Moderna or Pfizer, but they recommend anyone over 18 to get the J & J booster.  I'm hoping I don't get a bad reaction.  When I got my first shot, I felt nothing.  No pain, no muscle ache, no swelling, no getting sick, NO NOTHING.  Some felt it didn't take on me, so I hope I feel the same again this time and I hope it DID take this and the first time, too.
