This marks the beginning of the 25th week of The Documented Life Project. Not only do I love to look through my own planner/journal, I love that every class I teach when I share about the project there is always have at least two students that have their journals with them.
This weeks challenge is to add hearts to your flap.
um, duh this has me all over it and really took no longer than 20 minutes from start to finish. Here is what I did:
- I covered my flap using a scrap of painted paper and then adhered several hearts cut from another scrap of painted paper.
- Using Americana Spice Pink Acrylic paint and my pointer finger, I smeared pink paint (yes, pink!) here and there around the hearts :
- Then I used Americana White Wash and repeated the process:
- I added depth and shadow to the hearts using the Black Soot Distress Marker and a little Matte Medium to help blend it in and seal it :
- I added a phrase and called it done :
