g.....
ta..da...da...ta..da!!!!!
i've put the entire mini book over on the side bar...i LOVED this project & got so much inspiration from so many....from elwira's cardboard mini book, from petrina's amazing use of red, from janine's genuine journaling, from n'gaire's self confident and gutsy artistic style....to name just a few. this is my take on patty's flex your creative mind challenge #2 which was to pick a letter....i know you all saw something coming down the pike with a big ol' G on it...so i went with it....& tried to see what "g" is about right now....a little snapshot of me, here & now...what weighs on my mind... this sort of self reflection was really wonderful (& really scary! lol!), but i learned so much and i hope to be able to put more of me in my art from now on....
happy tuesday! g
Ååååå Gigi it is beautiful, love the colors and the buttons :)

Oh my gosh! This is beautiful! You've definitely inspired me...I always think that I have to use a photo on every page and I love how you didn't! I love the quote that you used next to the dragonfly...very, very cool!

This is so stunning. You rocked this mini album. Simply amazing. Love Elwira's little book. I saved that download!

Oh My! Or should I say, Oh G!!! That little book is stunning! You have so got it! Work that RED baby!! The only thing better than red is some red/black + white - and that little splash of complementary green just shows your oomphing style!! You keep outdoing yourself - where will it end??!!
Love, P.
