Hallo,
Another journal - this one with a steampunk flair. 'Clara' here is a great steampunk image by Charmaine Flannery - I have used her for several steampunk projects :)
I colored her with koh-I-noor pencils and then cut her out with a Spellbinders die. I coated her with sepia effects from Ranger. The next layer was also cut with a Spellbinders die. I covered the book with some paper that I found with goggles on it - LOVE that it matches so well with Clara and her goggles :)
Added some paper flowers, some feathers, 2 metal charms from Tim Holtz - wings and a bird cage.... and lastly added some bronze pearl drops with a viva décor pen.
Have a great day!!!!

I am about to adventure into the life of Retirement and am looking forward to significantly more time in the studio, playing with my Grandkids and traveling now and then with the hubby. I have spent 41 years as an RN - mostly in Critical Care. I picked up painting and more formal art again when my kids went from High School into college. I have always done some form of art, even in the busy years of Career, Mom, Military wife - mostly in the crafty forms(sewing, rubber stamping, its a long list...) Now I mainly paint with encaustic wax. Encaustic is an ancient art form from Greece and Egypt that uses beeswax, natural tree resin and pigments. Encaustic is painted while melted in thin layers and every layer is fused to those below with heat( I mostly use a torch). True to my 'normal' self I have 3 or 4 other hobbies that keep me busy too , and you will be seeing(and have been) those here too.
