Jeudi Journal

This week the Dylusion quote is Cancel "My Subscription I Don't Need Your Issues" and I hadn't a clue how to portray this at all.

To begin with I created a background with some lilac/purple DI's and then used a square stencil to create some interest.  I wanted to use another AAL & Create stamp on the background and so I chose to use some brushes and a ring binder spine (I think that is what it is).  Just felt that those two images were probably the most appropriate from my collection for 'subscription' and 'issues'.

Btw:  the words around the figure on the right are "A bit of this", "A bit of that", "A bit of the other", "As I said" and "You know what" - to give the illusion of "Issues".


I really enjoyed creating the figure on the right which some of you may recognise usually has a telephone on his head and another one between his feet.  I thought the short trousers, or long shorts, looked quite trendy, especially with those long socks and the boots.

This is what I enjoy most about doing my Journal on a Thursday - creating different figures from the rubber stamps I already have.  Saying that, I was thinking I needed something new to use, and on going through my stash I discovered that one set I thought was only on my wish list was actually in my box.  That cut me down from ordering.  Saved a bit of money there!  Now I have checked my database is up to date I shouldn't be duplicating my Dylusion stuff.
