Backlog of Journaling

I have been negligent! Not that anyone, I'm sure, enjoys my journal as much as me, but I haven't posted my most recent journal pages and have decided to remedy that. So here we go:


Drip Something Here... Close the Book and Make a Print

This is toothpaste, paint and nail polish. I've tried to see a picture in it (like those ink blot tests) but no luck. I just look at it and think, "Whee! Toothpaste!"


Something like Tear This Page Out, Put It In Your Pocket, Wash It, and Put It Back In the Journal

Yeah, so I tried to follow the directions but my washing machine ate it. Seriously. It went in but didn't come out. A few tiny bits showed up later in the dryer lint catcher but the bulk of it went poof in the wash.

Of course, this isn't the first thing the washer has eaten. A towel got caught under the agitator a while back and was torn all to heck. Yet another reason I want a new washer.

Anyway, I was quite sad the page went poof, so I made a new one. I'm actually pretty fond of it.


Color Outside the Lines

Well, the original line was the circle and I colored all over it, deliberately overlapping the line. Then I sort of created lines once the page was colored in. I drew the lines over the area where the colors merged, but the color edges still overlap and poke out from under the lines. Then I lightly painted over the coloring. Anyway, it's messy and colorful and nothing is precise and I think it is fun!


Sew This Page

I had the plans of sewing a lot more of this page, but honestly, I'm a slow sewer (that certainly doesn't look right) and I don't know that many fun stitches. But I thought this was nice. I withhold the right to do more sewing on it, though.

And that is some of my recent journal fun-ness.
