article: Week 1 "In My 30's" | written down

I have been really excited to start something new. This way of creating is so different for me, but I am enjoying it so much. For week one my journal page is about being “in my 30’s.” When I turned 31 a few years back my husband was nice enough to tell me that I was no longer 30, but now “in my 30’s.” Every year that I have been “in my 30’s” I have found myself asking more questions about what I want to do now. I love this age, but I’m not ready to “grow up.” It has been a real emotional roller coster ride for me.

To create my page I used lots of acrylic paints and glazed my background. Using Photo Shop I altred a photo of myself, printed it on cardstock and then cut it out. I created my water with tissue paper that I painted over. I used Twinkling H2O’s and artist crayons also. My journaling is just random thoughts written all over the page.
