So the next week or two I am going to catch everyone up on what I have been up to the past several months. I am out of work for the summer (I am a lunch lady) so I have much more time for blogging!!
I have been busy sewing, scrapping and creating mixed media like crazy.
I am in love with Julie Nutting's paper dolls. I love bringing them to life with colors and patterns. This time around my canvas was about pages of magazines glued and sewn together and primed with Gesso.
I also used magazine cut outs of butterflies and the girl (might be miley cyrus....I just liked her hair and glasses haha) The larger painted butterfly is 2 heidi swapp stencils layered together. Lots of acrylic paint and sequins, cosmo cricket sentiment...and a sentiment from a magazine. The papers for the dress are a mix of several pads.
Here is a close up of the doll. I love her style. Maybe I am just partial, though. Haha.
I hope that this post inspires you to get creative! Its summer! Its time to take chances, make mistakes and GET MESSY!!!!!!

Isn't this quote just inspiring? It was an interview with a famous actress and I just loved it. Its so true.
