just put the finishing touches on my 2009 December Art Journal cover
I knew I wanted to use a Paper Whimsy girl to hold the star on a wire that I recently found … Gel Medium was a great help in gluing the cheesecloth, lace (thank you so much Michelle … this is the most I have used at one time!!) and bits of this and that to the gessoed cover
Sue I finally dipped into the box of delights you sent me for my birthday and was brave enough to cut one Austrian crystal button from that perfect vintage card of buttons
… the gold specked netting was the perfect ingredient as well … many thanks!!!
when I thought my cover was finished and had already taken a few photos … it came to me to add one golden wing … symbolic of how I felt a lot of the time this December … flying with just one wing …
“What has time done to me? Changed my very being” ~a quote from the gorgeous Indian film “Jodhaa Akbar“
a totally stunning film we will watch again … maybe the second time without English Subtitles as to not be distracted from the cinematography and actors for even an instant
