This month’s OLW assignment is a simple one visually. But I still wanted to record it so here we are. It’s song lyrics. See if you can figure out a theme.

July was another two-pager. The assignment was to pick three things: One self care item, one thing to celebrate, and one thing to give. I chose to celebrate doing 10K steps each day and to eat salads each day for lunch as my self-care. For giving, I decided to use the two big trips we took to see family. Here’s the front:
And the back:

Continuing with the One Little Word 2014 assignments. This one is a two page spread. On the left is a large shot of me and the journaling is about one thing I’d like to improve this month.
The right side is a series of photos from the first half of the year. Photos that make me happy.
Love seeing these even now. Remember This is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
Before the year is out, I wanted to make sure to share some of my One Little Word assignments from this past year. Here is the one from all the way back to March. This assignment was to do a vision board. We had a similar one last year and I used Pinterest back then to create my own and I loved the results, so when we had it again this year, I decided to do it exactly the same way. I just love the way these turn out and I print them out to glue them into my notebooks and I also make them the background of my computers. And then when the year turns over and I make a new one, the old one becomes a screen saver. Remember This is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
Life Book week 36 was an assignment from Tam. It was all about intuition and just doing what came naturally to you. As I listened to Tam’s meditation, I kept seeing balloons. I kept seeing them let go. So I decided to write “brave” and then have it look like the balloons were cut to go free. It says: it is time to be brave and release: let it go. it’s really shimmery: Remember This is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
Life Book week 32 was an assignment from Micki Wilde. I had never drawn one of her girls before and I think I need a lot more practice but I still like what I ended up with. She’s giving love out to everyone. It says: give all of you and ask for nothing in return. I will say, I believe this wholeheartedly. Remember This is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
Life Book week 31 was an assignment from Mika Diaz. It was about using tracing paper to transfer a drawing into your art journal. I had a lot of layers and fun with mine and used all my My mind’s Eye products to make a fun background with shiny layers coming from within.
It says: you can choose peace. Remember This is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
Life Book week 30 was an assignment from Carissa Paige. It was about doing transfers and since I don’t like those I decided to do rubons instead. I just had fun with this one.
I put some patterned paper down, colored over it and then colored over the whole thing once more. Some lovely rubons and i was done. The journaling says: Life is ephemeral. Capture it. Savor it. Soak it in. Live it. Remember This is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
Life Book week 26 was a bonus from Kate Thompson and week 29 was a bonus from Marieke Blokland and I decided to combine both. I used fun, florescent colors for my background. These were the high flows and they didn’t behave the way I expected but I just went with it. Then I grew the girl per Kate’s lesson. Though hers was much better, of course. And finally I wrote “Keep Trying” because I was frustrated with my lack of enough talent to create something I visualize the way I visualize it. And then I journaled all over.

Life Book week 28 was back to an assignment from Tam. It was about drawing an eye. This one is almost a copy of the art she made for the week. And i do love it so. It’s all made with acrylics, pens, watersoluble crayons and some sprays. I do wish I’d written one big message on the page. Eh, we live we learn. Remember This is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
Life Book week 25 was back to an assignment from Effy Wild. Her art was totally different but when I sat down to create, this is what poured out of me. It happens that way sometimes. This lady is made with acrylics. And she is not my favorite but I do like her message: You are exactly where you’re supposed to be. Remember This is a project for 2014.

My July My Mind’s Eye assignment is also May’s One Little Word assignment. I decided to take the wonderful little MME cards and then use their embellishment packs to add a layer and then I painted a bunch on each and then I stamped a bunch. And a little more paint. And finally I wrote my journaling and this is what I ended up with. All the journaling is about what I am thinking about and trying at this moment.
Still can’t get enough of that Gold. Remember This is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here. |
