My photo of a yucca plant bloom, plus a couple of blurry bokeh pics as part of the background, some digital scrapbooking elements and my first digi art journal page is created..... :)
A different kind of creativity: I thought it time to embrace fall more completely, so I moved out my summery candles and sea glass and created a fall display on my sideboard.
I added my wrapped rocks, some wrapped sticks and beach finds to my candle plate and a few silk leaves for bold color. That's about as much fall decor as I put out because I'm really all about Christmas.....fall is just a holding pattern til the day after Thanksgiving when I can pull out my bins of Christmas decorations! :)
For day 12, I finished my companion piece to the book I won from Fiona. I'm really pleased with the result of this - I focused on creating layers and trying to forget about the layers I was covering up, just enjoying what was on top.
Before and after (obviously shot at different times of the day):
The brush was a yard sale find with stone disks and bone handle, don't know what kind of hair in the brush, but it's very cool. Fiona's long narrow book is such a delight of pattern and texture that I wanted something to complement it.....
So, I used similar elements: color palette, black lines, etc. but I added a little teal ... well, because I like the color! :) There's a button and the circles are from the baby wipe I used when smooshing around the paint, so it's in the exact same tones....I just found interesting patterns on the dried wipe. Such a great fabric texture.
