Day 86 - Calendar complete

Seen as I've missed a few days I thought I'd share the finished Calendar before work and start afresh tomorrow. So here is the completed look, it's already hung up and ready for action. It took a while but I think it was worth it, it's certainly more personal than a shop bought one.

Day 85 - January to December ready for compiling

It's been a couple of days since my last post, but I have been busy completing my calendar pages amid partying and recovering. I hope everyone had a great new year and are already on the way to a better, more productive, more creative, more mad year than the last...
So hopefully by this time tomorrow I will have a full calendar to share and of course write on!

Day 84 - Art Journalling calendar pages

So I've completed my month-by-month days they are all stacked and ready to be bound, now I am playing around with art journalling and the many techniques that come with it to create my monthly images. To begin with I splattered 12 background sheets with tea then added a few Pollock style drops of ink. Then began the slower task of sifting through all the images I gathered on Friday and arranging them in a suggestion of months. Here I have got January and October, tea'd inked and decoupaged, later I will add some more detail and texture, once all the months are at this stage...
Perhaps this will be done by Wednesday, but the likeliness is very slim, so long as I get a new Calendar before mid-January I'll be happy...
