Mystele and more

In the Lifebook course this week, we had a lesson by Mystele. Really enjoyed her technique for "bringing out" a person from the background.

Then, here are some Book of Day pages. The first spread is kind of scary--was not a good day--but I got over it and moved on to some better ones.

And then this past week, I was sick with a rotten cold and only managed one spread

And finally some items for swapping
"Light's Camera Action" Have you ever seen the old classic movie "Sunset Boulevard"? If you haven't, rent it--it's a good one.

And finally a gothic arch for a challenge group I belong to. The theme was where would you like to travel.

Lifebook and Book of Days

I'm not exactly following directions in Lifebook--coloring outside the lines, so to speak--the assignment this time was to use a picture from a magazine and paint over the face and alter it-which I did--the theme was supposed to be about accomplishments you are proud of--I just went with where the painting took me.
Next more Book of Days (which is now called Sisterhood of the Book). We are also reading "Life is a Verb by Patti Digh. This spread is inspired by her book.

I am sure my granddaughter would not appreciate the silly hat, but this page was about her birthday--and the page with me with the pink glasses was again inspired by "Life is a Verb".

This and That

I participated in a swap that Tee at the Altered Paper facilitated. This is the ATC that I sent to Donna at Red Apple Junction and here is the lovely ATC I received from her!

I am participating in an altered tin swap over at Roses on My Table. This is the first time I have made an altered tin--not so easy as it might seem--I have a great admiration for those who make these little gems.

Jeanette Antoinette

I'm taking the Lifebook class. The concentration so far in the class seems to be on finding your "inner goddess". Now no offense to any of you on that search--but this is a search that I went on and completed in my forties and it's a good one--but I don't really want to search again. The workshop for this week was to do a photo transfer of your face and then create your goddess self. I just wanted to have fun, so here you have Jeanette Antoinette.
