There is something about an upcoming snow day - blizzard in this case - that gets my creative juices flowing. Maybe it is the nowhere to go feeling of a snow day that brings it on.I started this page with a certain idea in mind and ended up here. Love it. I painted the background with water colors with some masking tape used as resist. Then attached this piece of tissue paper/napkin using gel medium, and love, love, love how it turned out. Got a stash of napkins from a member of my art journal group and decided to play and see what I could create with them. There needs to be some writing to finish the page - will post that when completed.
It's a new year. Get out that stash you've been saving and use it. Sometimes beautiful things happen.

Stunning. Love the colors and the shapes and lines. Has a frightened and whimsical feel. Very appropo for the coming storm.
Thanks Cynthia. We've got over a foot already this morning. Let it snow!
