I’m Growing Places!

This is it. This is my very first journal page. It’s just a test run on small index cards on a metal ring binder, but it’s the start of creativity at long last. I had a lot of fun. I used Gesso, watercolor crayons, torn papers, and printed out the I’m growing places.
My fingers are officially dirty. =) While I was digging through supplies to use I came across more of my old art. I scanned the paper dolls below and plan to work them into future journal covers. I used to have them in my old house as a border around the top of the room. What fun!

One of my favorites is the little doctor. I used the hair net they gave me at the hospital when I had my surgery. Paper dolls can be rather addicting so if you plan to start them make sure you have a good chunk of time and space to play with. I have a notebook dedicated to them and plan to work them into my art. Use your imagination! There are no fashion police for paper dolls. =)
I call this Scuba Steve. I made it for a male friend of mine. But he was forward enough to say he didn’t like it. So now I’m stuck with it. I’m no longer friends with him. It was one of my shortest lived friendships. If you can even call it that. =P As I dig for more and more supplies I’ll take pictures of my art area and my art closet. My glasses haven’t arrived yet but I squinted my way through my first mini page well enough. Tomorrow I plan to make a paper cross for my mom.
