Hi Everyone!
Today I have my October calendar to share with you. But first let me show you my September calendar all filled out with my daily activities. Lots of daily walks and art, as always!
And now here is my calendar for October.
I started with a layer of sewing pattern tissue, then applied some paint and used the reductive stencilling technique to reveal the tissue beneath.
Next, I used some of my lovely friend Florence's fabulous mark-making stamps from Crafty Individuals, to create some interest on the background. Flo kindly gifted the stamps to me, she's such a generous friend!
I used Flo's larger circle ring image with pink paint to create my journalling circles, then stamped the centre solid circle with yellow paint.
I wrote the title with a black Posca paint pen, and added some white pen dots to the journalling circles and wording.
Finally, I used a HB pencil to scribble around the circles, and a black Stabilo All pencil and water to create a dark watercolour frame around my pages.
I'm linking my calendar to Chris' Hold The Line theme at Art Journal Journey.
Thank you so much for visiting, I hope you all have a happy and peaceful weekend.
