No, not me, the quote for this week was "For the first time in her life she was truly happy. Then she remembered she was drunk".
I began with a background of Pan Pastels again, simply because at the moment they are the easiest way for me to get colour on the entire page of my Journal. My back is really suffering with not having its usual treatment from the chiropractor because of this Covid-19 and places like that having to close for the present time. In fact that is why I am late posting today, it is a particular bad morning for me. Luckily I had the page almost completed with the background done, the figures ready, it just wanted sticking down and the post writing up.
I used pinks, blues and lilacs, all pastel colours for my main background then I went over with a shocking luminous pink paint on my brayer, and Cheddar which is a favourite of mine from the Dina Wakeley range, in small patches. I wanted to link in to Artful Journal Journey so I had to find some geometric shapes to link in with their theme for this month so I knew I had something other than triangles, diamonds, circles etc and sure enough I had pentagons on a stencil (I had thought they were octagons util I got it out of the folder). So they were stencilled through with some Worn Lipstick DI around the top and sides.
Because my trio are on the way home from a party and my poor girl who has had 'one too many' has tripped I thought of my stencil for a brick wall and used a bit of Tea Dye DI along the bottom. Oops! She has lost her party hat but she is still holding on to the balloons.
So that is the story behind my Journal page today.
