Love is Everywhere...

Hey there my friends!  How goes it?  I hope you are having a good week!  I have a Book of Days spread to share with you today from last Monday - February 12th.

It was fun how this spread happened.  I was just playing around with layers and backgrounds, and when I got this far, Michael came in the room and saw what I was doing...
 and right away he said he saw a figure with long legs dancing!  He pointed her out, and then I saw her too, and I also saw her holding hands with another figure, although you could only see some shorts and long legs of the second one.  Do you see them?

 So I did a little work to pull them out into the foreground, and this is how the page turned out...
The layers on this page go like this:

gesso
stenciling with dylusions spray ink
more gesso scraped on with a credit card
dictionary paper
Color Magic acrylic ink scribbles and drips
red tissue paper heart
a little red acrylic paint around the edges
details put in with poster paint pens
Journaling (lyric) typed, printed and pasted on the top

Experimenting is so much fun!  I had no idea where I was going with this page, and I love how it seemed to have a mind of its own.  Maybe it's my subconscious at work?  Hmmm.... something to ponder.

In other news, I just signed up for Joanne Sharpe's "Letter Love 101" course.  I've heard rave reviews about it, and I love lettering, so I'm excited to see where it takes me!  I will keep you posted on that.

Thanks for visiting my friends!  I will be back tomorrow with another update.
