... if only time would stand still



Heart Journal 2012

..if only time would stand still ...  For the month of May, our project was to create a heart using aluminum foil, gesso and acrylic paints. I embossed the foil, painted on gesso then polished to reveal the relief of the paisley pattern. I splashed on layers of alcohol inks 'here and there' and embellished with a small amount of stickles.

Thank you Thealie and Libellule for this wonderful challenge. It's so nice to see our Heart Journal grow as the months go by . My apologies again as I was a little late submitting this. 

I'm looking forward to starting our next challange for June!

Thanks so much for visiting.
