Hello creative friends. I've been busy creating a journal out of a little golden book. I purchased a Frida Kahlo kit which had stamps, pattern paper, washi tape and die cuts and decided to also purchase a Little Golden Book of Frida Kahlo and turn it into a journal. Here are the videos showing how I created this journal:

Part 2 - Signatures
Hello creative friends. I hope everyone is doing well. I've been doing my best with everything that has been going on. Without going into too much, I was laid off from my job last March and a year and a half later still unable to find another job, so just trying to figure it all out. Anyway, I've decided that I need to focus more on my art and just let the chips fall where they may. One of the things I feel I needed to do is refill my stash of ephemera for using in journals, art journal pages and mixed media art. So I will be working on several things to do just that. So to start with I wanted to make some clusters that could be used in journals and other artwork, but I also wanted to create the focal images and other pieces to making the clusters with. So I used watercolors to paint different shapes and cut them out. Then I dug into my scraps for additional papers to use in making the clusters. Here is a picture of the clusters I made:
