Picking up where I left off yesterday…
A very plain page here. I pulled off the journaling card (got to love UnDu) and added the date.
The back of the page got a few vinyl stickers and some white pen action. Can you tell it was mid-month and I was too busy to spend much time on the book?
9.14.09
Below, on the left, you can see the page that was there. I replaced it with a piece of cardboard that arrived in my Chinese food takeout bag. With the painted words, it really has a cool kind of outsider art feel, don't you think?
And here's the back:
9.15.09
Below, you can see the original page for day #15:
I replaced it with the page below, which uses one of my all time favorite inking techniques. But, I can't share it because it's part of my Technique-a-Palooza class!
This is the back…
…which looks similar, but it's a totally different technique. It's a remnant from my "Trash to Tools" tutorial, which was on Ali Edwards' blog.
I know I say this every single time, but it's amazing how much paint transforms things. A little blue paint and a whole new page is born! The journaling square looks super different with the heart placed on top of it too.
Back to my old tricks on this one. I combined the four photos in Photoshop and printed them as a single 4×6 photo. A bit of journaling with a white pen and I simply stuck it to the page. So easy!
I'll share the rest of the book tomorrow!
Before I go, I just had to link to this post by Kelly Purkey. I love all the very cool things she's done with type. The third layout is my favorite.
Thanks for stopping by!
