Driving Yourself Happy

The background surface is canvas prepped with gesso. I painted a wash,  heat dried, and then stenciled an accent color.  I love how this turned out.  The car is from B-Line Designs along with the people in the car.  The embellishments are from Tim Holtz.  Love how this page turned out!

Alibi Established

The Cheshire cat goes well with the 1920's outfit and sentiment.  I added glasses in solid red.  The background is a paint wash on a canvas page prepared with gesso first.  I also rubber stamped images for the background using Chalk inks.  I am enjoying Dina Wakeley's mixed media journal.

Destination Unknown

I have used ephemera from all sorts of places: the Canadian map from the 60's, the German Scrap was salvaged from an old art project before being tossed, the "Fun" ticket recently purchased at Junk Bonanza in Minneapolis, and a rubber stamp image that was one of my first purchases - 20 years ago!  I am not sure if the 7 Gypsies fabric tape is even available today.

She Conquered Her Demons

Lynne Perrella has some very interesting ladies.  I combined the head with other stamps in my collection to make the paper doll.  The lace for her skirt was given to me from an art friend living in the UK. I will think of her each time I view my page.
