Waiting For The Rain - Karen's CJ

This is my entry for the penultimate Desert Island Discs CJ.
I had Karen's CJ and the song I chose from the two that were left was Waiting For the Rain by Manfred Mann. When I looked the lyrics up online the line "Look at you hiding from the rain" made me think of this stamp from Unity. I really like her and use her at every opportunity so she was the basis of this entry. I stamped her on some MME paper.



I glued down some book pages as the base and then lightly gessod over the top. Next I used some Liqutex paint thinned down. I used the Hero Arts Blue Neon ink with a chevron stamp for more texture. The doily was sprayed with Mr Huey in Sunshine and the other stamps are from a MME set I have. The butterflies rub-ons are Bo Bunny. Finally I wrote out two of the lines from the song that had caught my eye. It's now with Nigel for the final entry and I have Nigel's here to complete. It's been a super CJ and I'll be sad to see it end.

  2. I'll be sad to see it end but still even more sad that Sarah's is still missing. I adore what you've done on the journal - gorgeous stuff!
