Kolme Muusaa antoivat viikon aiheeksi "Taskut". Tein altsukirjan aukeaman, jossa käytin vanhojen vihreiden farkkujeni takataskua, neulaa ja lankaa erilaisiin tikkauksiin sekä kuvia itkupilliltä, Annen Arkkikaupasta ja omista varastoistani. Oikeanpuoleiseen taskuun tein ikkunan, että näkyy mitä kaikkea taskunpohjalle on kertynyt. Mitä kollaasini tarkoittaa - sitä en osaa sanoa, tällainen siitä vain tuli. - Sivujen taustat maalasin akryyliväreillä, ensin sinisellä ja sitten vihreällä, ja märkään vihreään maaliin painoin raitoja aaltopahvinpalalla.
The Three Muses set the theme for this week to be "Pockets". I made a spread in my altered book using the back pocket from my old green jeans, a needle and thread for various stiches, and images from itkupilli, Annen Arkkikauppa and from my own stash. In the right hand side pocket there's a window so you can see the stuff collected in the bottom of the pocket. I have no idea what the meaning of my collage might be - it just turned out like this. - I painted the backgrounds of the pages with acrylic paints, first blue then green, and while the green paint was wet I printed stripes on it with a piece of corrugated cardboard.
Brilliant journal pages Eila- I love the creativity here- really beautiful work and such a unique idea ! Wow!
VastaaPoistaEila, your journal pages are always creative and wonderful. These are no exception! I love the fact that you have used your own pocket and filled it with all sorts of goodies. I especially love the way you have shown us a corner of the inside where more little bits and pieces are hiding. This is fantastic work.
