God & Satan - Sian's DID

Well, there was only two to choose from, so I went for this one.

As the saying goes, "there's two sides to every story"

Desert Island Discs for Sian

This is a bit belated as I sent the CJ away at the beginning of the month but I'm slowly getting out the bit again and normal service is resuming hopefully.

This entry is based on the song "That Day" by Natalie Imbruglia and was one I hadn't really heard before. It is important to Sian however and I wanted to do an uplifting entry for her plus I'm really liking yellow at the moment.

This is the title page with the song lyrics and I used some Maya Mist and Dylusions sprays with a vintage doily I have. The stamp is a Unity Brave Girl one. 

This page I layered down book pages and texture paste using a Studio Calico mask. I then sprayed the same colour combination through the doily again. The line that inspired me was about sitting in the sun and I imagined getting strength and warmth from it. I'm still drawing heads as well so I thought it was fitting to have her facing my sun. The hair is a combination of Neocolors and Sharpie poster paint pens. The alpha stamps are Studio Calico while the rest are VivaLasVegas and more Unity Brave Girls.

I hope Sian likes it and it satisfies her brief. We're on the home straight now and I have so enjoyed the journals. TFL. Sonja x

Desert Island Disc - CJ Pages for Pat and Sian

I received the two journals for Pat and Sian 

at the same time and having now completed 

pages in both of them, have today sent them

onto Pam.

First up is the page for Pat.

'Isn't She Lovely' is the song I chose.

I did a bit of spraying, inking, doodling

and masking.

The central heart is cut from a book page

and Mod Podged to give it a bit of strength.

The words are stamped onto seam binding.

Hope Pat likes it - by the way Pat, I love your

cover for the journal - and if I remember rightly,

it was made from the leather scraps I sent you

in the mystery parcel?  What a brill idea, love what you did!

This next one is for Sian.

I chose a song called 'Cut' which I'd never

heard of before.

I found an image on google of a couple arm in arm

which I cut out and used as a stencil/mask.

The cuts on the arm were made with an versamark

pen then heat embossed.

 My interpretation is for both Sian and her husband

and I hope you like it Sian x
