Remember me? Well around here my mojo has been in hiding the last few weeks, hence no posts. Thankfully it did return briefly last weekend so I could complete some DT stuff but then bimbled off again somewhere. Hope it's having a nice time anyway :-)
I went back to something comfortable and have eventually completed a couple of journal pages just in time for the 'Hidden Objects' challenge at PaperArtsy.
I've started to use an old book for some styles of journalling. I've removed some pages and turned it upside down which is something I've noticed Marta Lapkowska does.
Washi tape, embossing paste through a stencil and Lindy's stamp gang sprays. It is very green...
...and purple. Foam squares, embossing powder and micro beads with canvas and card from my scraps box.
So the writing is partly hidden and the finished pages have little people (objects) peeking out from their hiding places.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope it won't be too long before I'm back again.

Stunning, Ruth - so glad you're feeling Mojo-rejuvenated! What a fabulous page spread - beautiful textures and the faces peeping out are magical... like faeries at the bottom of the garden!

This is just my cuppa tea Ruth! Love the canvassy bits and all the textures! You have inspired me to have another play! Great art, thanks! Mojo looks ok to me! Xx
ReplyDeleteI just love this, the little people peeking out from behind those beautiful small blocks, the wonderful colours, the texture you created - all wonderful!! I think your Mr Mojo has definitely returned, judging from this gorgeous creation. Hugs, Anne xx
ReplyDeleteOh, Ruth, this is another favorite of yours for me! Love the colors, the foam squares idea is just genius, and the little people popping their heads out all just tickle me! Oh, our background is wonderful; so full of texture and amazing depth! So happy your mojo is back! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sara, I can't claim credit for the foam squares idea...I first saw it on a Finnabair project but it's a great idea. Hugs Ruth x
DeleteReally love these pages Ruth. Wonderful colours and texture and love the little people peeping from their hiding places. I would be really happy if I produced something like this with a mojo let alone without one, lol!

ReplyDeleteI LOVE this page Ruth! it's incredible!! Everything about this is amazing with so much thought put into it, those people, the colours, the words - BRILL-I-ANT!! xxx
ReplyDeleteWowww this is so beautiful Ruth, love it!!
ReplyDeleteLove the journal pages Ruth. I think it's the changeable weather that's the problem, I'm a bit that way myself at this time of the year. I keep feeling that I should be outside doing things in the garden and can't concentrate properly on my craft stuff. Hope you have a happy crafty week, Angela xXx
ReplyDeleteI love this, what a timely comeback for your Mojo! the upsidedown pages are a great idea. Love this page.
ReplyDeleteYou may not have invented the foam square thing, but this is certainly my favourite creation using the idea! What a fabulous page, just love the microbeads and the wonderful colour splashes! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant Ruth! Such inspiration! I fear I may have left my Mojo in France - hope he makes it back soon! Chrisx
ReplyDeleteOh my Ruth, this is stunning, so much wonderful texture, and the colours are fantastic together . The foam, squares and the fabric-all makes a stunning whole !!
