Kindness

Hello Friends,

Yesterday I announced that I was beginning a daily painting/art journaling challenge for the month of July. Normally I will only be posting six days a week and I would love for some other brave soul/s to join me in the challenge.

The inspiration for this page came from Journal 52, Week 27: Kindness. I started with some torn paper collage and ink sprays. I used vintage scripture word art by Little Birdie Blessings. I love the way Abby combines scripture with lovely vintage art.

I tore the scripture portion from its image (lady with sheep) and surrounded it with die cut leaves and birds created by my favourite SU punch. I punched the birds from a collage of patterned papers which I embossed. I used some extra 'wings' to crown the scripture.

This is the other vintage art by Little Birdie Blessings, using a portion of the same scripture. I coloured the leaves and flowers with Tombow water-based markers.

And here is the vintage art that originally went with the full version of the scripture. I used the negative die cut of one bird as a frame around the lamb.

In May I taught a mixed media class. Instead of tossing all of the leftover paint, I let it dry on the plastic lid palettes and then peeled it off. I collaged some of the acrylic paint skins onto my background. I also stamped randomly the word KIND and a decorative stamp by Inkadinkado. Two other touches were stenciling with my die cut negative of my leafy branch, and finger smudges of gold metallic paint.

Thanks for dropping by. I have two backgrounds started for future pages, so I will hopefully have something new to show you tomorrow.

Hugs & smiles,
Teresa
