Live the Life You've Imagined

This journal page was inspired by "Summer Days." On vacation, I loved watching the sea turtle hatching on the beach. 

I painted the turtle and background with watercolor.  I added markers for the shading and a crackle stamp to give the turtle shell texture.  I'm not sure if this photo shows the vibrancy of the colors.

Challenges I participated in: The Mixed Media - Summer Challenge, Simon Says - Letter of the week "I",

Received recognition for my turtle.

Who Am I

Hello crafty friends.  I have another mixed media journal page to share with you today.  The prompt was "Who am I".  I used a lot of wonderful elements to create this page. Several of them were; old laundry stub, a page of an ice cream order book, quote from a magazine along with other elements found in magazines.  The background was created with acrylic paint.  The cloths pin hold a photo of myself and my English Bulldog, Rosie.  To view the characteristics of what make me.me. By lifting up the photo to revile the list. 

Challenges I participated in: Simon Says - Anything Goes, Through The Craftroom Door - Anything Goes,

Winner - Mixed Media Monthly Challenge

I'm excited to learn I was chosen as the June Year of Choices winner over at The Mixed Media Monthly Challenge blog for my peacock page.
