This journal page brought out my inner child which led to the lost teeth memories. Granted, my inner child is not buried too deeply. Especially since my inner child has been playing around getting everything ready for A Colorful Workshop: Gelli Printing! It starts April 1st. Lots are signed up to play. Are you?
These were scraps from other projects. I glued them down without knowing where it was going. Little did I know where it would go!
The paint lids stencil by Dina Wakely adds color but still leaves plenty of open space.
Julie Balzer’s Blazonry stencil adds bold sections of rich color.
Who would have known when I was gluing that ripped bit of paper down it would end up looking like a tooth brush on a giant tooth…
The dictionary page actually had this word at the top- a guide word. Couldn’t argue with that- it was playtime in the studio!
I loved how the yellow and orange blended. I would like to think it is because I am uber talented but the reality is the right tools make a difference. (The Catalyst tools
are so easy to use too!)
This is where the video stopped. I thought it was finished but no. It kept nagging at me for a title- so I added “lost teeth” with a stabilo pencil.
Linking up with Make It Monday, Inspire Me Monday, Mandarin Orange Monday, Creative Every Day.
fabulous!
Fantastic piece Carolyn! xx
You see tooth…I see horse with party hat–whatever it is fun to PLAY!!! Loving the color blending on this page!
Colorful, creative and delightful journal page ~ ^_^
I see a tooth too. Maria, I tried to find the horse but couldn’t. 🙂
Happy MOM!
I’d also like to invite you to join Orange You Glad It’s Friday. It’s an Orange meme too and starting March 11, I will be hosting it at Life’s sweets and spices. Hope to see you there.
That is so cool!!! Love the colors–so happy and full of life! And the tooth. Now, that’s just rather awesome. 😉

Nice, colourful piece! Glad you are having fun! Valerie
Love your posts and videos. Feels like I’m right there with you playing! Interesting that you say these scraps are yellow – which does show up in the still photos – but on video it looks green! This page came out great and yes, I see a tooth too!

I love your lost tooth page…I remember so well waiting for the tooth fairy and never did see that fairy but your page brings sweet dreams to mind. xox
Wow-I had a dream last night that I lost a tooth-really! So here’s where it is :):) This is one of my very favorite color combinations-love how it all came together-tooth and all!
Impressive! Like all the colors.. Thank’s for sharing…

Love to see your pages just “evolve,” Carolyn! No plan! I am working towards that freedom! Thanks for the inspiration!
Love it! Saw this on MIM!
Wow! Fun and very interesting technique 🙂 Found you via M.O.M.
You have the right tools AND you are uber talented!
Happy spread, fun colours, interesting shapes.
Really beautiful!
I was visiting MIM when I spotted your journal page. I love the vibrant colors you’ve used and I think you’ve sold me on those Catalyst blades. I haven’t ventured into art journaling yet, but you make me want to try 🙂

Gorgeous! That’s one of my all-time fave stencils. I love how you built this one up and made that hot pink POP.
I love watching you! Great commentary! You inspire me.
