Dance like no one is watching…

Just a quick post today, trying to take a day of less computer time. It’s near impossible to drag myself away from my computer completely, but after a day of being fairly thoroughly absorbed in blogs, Twitter, and shopping on Etsy most of yesterday I’m feeling a need to step back a bit. However, I wanted to pop on briefly to share my latest page. This is the end result of the infamous transfer attempt. If you can find the faintest hint of success with my image transfer, I will be mightily impressed! I did manage to do a fairly good job fixing up the New Year’s page, carefully gluing bits of torn page back in place where possible and coloring in with gray gel pen where it wasn’t. I only lost about 6 words in all, and was able to write them back in. As frustrating as the whole transfer fiasco was, I am quite pleased by the end result, transfers or no. LOADS of stickers on this one, I’m in a very sticker place right now – especially Lisa Frank! I’m a little disappointed with the lettering, especially on the right page… it’s a bit hard to read over the tie-dye background. Oh well, practice makes perfect, live and learn, etc. :)


OOh this really caught my eye on Flickr so popped over here for a closer look. The colours are fabby, I love it! A gorgeous journal page :-)
I love the colors in all your pages – you get that crazy technicolor thing without being too jarring … I really like it!
PS I see where the Lisa Frank stickers have come in handy ;)
I love your dance page! The tie dyed background and the composition fits the uninhibited attitude of the dancer beautifully. Thank you so much for your sweet comments on my blog; the song you mentioned, one of my long-time favorites, is “Impossible/Possible” from the 1060′s movie “Cinderella” and is sung by Julie Andrews.
