Second on the 2nd

 

This post is for Second on the 2nd.  If your second look and your T Tuesday post are the same, please add it both places.

As most of you know, I like my second look each month to reflect our host at Art Journal Journey's (AJJ) theme.  Since I'm hosting this month that means anything is fair game.

This post is from February 13, 2023 and was entitled T Stands For Love And Kisses.  

Today we are meeting at my dining room table to celebrate Valentine's Day.

My vignette for Valentine's Day I created on my dining room table.  

My teapot shares space with my journal page.  Here is a close up of the journal page.

I hope you see why I call this Love and Kisses.

Vintage sheet music was colored using a red marker.

I sewed it to some reddish pink handmade (by me) paper using red thread.

Finally I added the Love and Kisses postage stamp issued back in 2007 when first class postage was $0.39 (USD).

One more look at this entry which started with dotted scrapbook paper to which everything was sewn in place.

I've shown you mine, now it's your turn to share your own Second on the 2nd. 


The rules are quite simple and everyone is welcome to join the fun look back.  All you have to do is bring back a post that you are especially proud of, or perhaps one you shared before anyone knew your blog existed.  It could even be one that holds special meaning.  Any post, any genre, any artistic endeavor is acceptable, as long as it's been published sometime in the past.  Then link below (direct links only, please) and Bleubeard and I, along with other Second on the 2nd friends, will be by to visit, although I may not be able to leave a comment.  Be aware, this link is for your second look only.  If you are also sharing a T Tuesday post as your second look, please add your link both places.

Hello dear Elizabeth, this time I did not forget your 2nd link-party. I chose two posts from three years ago. So sorry that is still not possible for you to comment. Have a good time and all the best

This is so beautiful and I do remember this. The simplest detail can make the art. Have a nice day today.

I remember this piece. It was fun then, and is fun now. I wonder if you can still get those Hershey Kisses stamps. They are perfect for Feb. I'll "see" you later today for T day. hugs-Erika

Delightful artwork! My post is from 2006! My life has changed, but my photographic style hasn’t changed much
