LD17: journalpage #1

Only 2 days and 2017 is starting. Time flies...

Here my page (without journaling)

LD17: journalpage

I prepare my journalpage for (yes yes) next year. I used some papertrash (gelli plate leftovers) for my text.

Next step...cutting out and glue it in my new journal

Life Documented 2017: journalcover

2016 is almost gone...so time to prepare my journalcover for next year. DLP will not go on, but there is a new fb-group: life documented 2017. Jump over if you love journaling!

Here is de front of my new, thin journal

And here the backside...

How i made this? Simple...

The last 3 years i used the same kind of journal. (Lucky me, i have a few journals for the next years. They are 19cm x 25cm) 

No stress...here we go:

First 2 layers gesso

Grab different types of letter leftovers. 

More layers...

Again gesso, gesso and more gesso

Next layer: different colors acrylic paint (i used blue, green, purple and pink)

 

The next step is a big one...

Another layer: glaze and golden fluid raw umber. 

Its brown now...so ugly. After a minute and half its babywhipes-time

This is the result. I love the dimension 

And the last layer: gel medium (to protect the cover)

As you can see...i'm ready for a new year journaling
