It is SUNDAY!!!!

Wishing everyone a HAPPY SUNDAY!!!

I know Jean must be happy, she is on vacation!!! She will be back with us tomorrow. 

While she is away I thought I would share a mixed media collage project that I made a while back.  If you haven't tried mixing your medias, I HIGHLY recommend it. There isn't a right or wrong way. Just create until you like it! 

There are many layers on the canvas board I created. It was a lot of fun playing with all the different products on the same board. Come on GIVE IT A TRY!

TIME TO DANCE
 One thing to remember is patience... 
let things dry between applications!!!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
