So here we are in June. I've managed to complete half the year in Kate's Journal challenge and have even come in on time for this one - Miracles do happen ;o)
June's calender background just had to be a Union flag. I used Tim Holtz Distress Markers (picket fence, chipped sapphire and fired brick) for the flag and love the effect when I splatted it with water.
I chose 'hats' as my days as it's in keeping with the Diamond Jubilee celebrations. My intention was to have a crown for the day of the Jubilee but ...... being a bit dim ...... I cant work out which is the correct date! If 2nd June 1953 was the coronation day and Elizabeth II became Queen in Feb 1952 what are we doing this weekend exactly? Feel free to educate me if you know ;o)
This is how May's page ended up.
I did challenge myself to do some things differently - some will and some will not be repeated!
Thank you for stopping by.
xXx

Think I'm a bit dim too and need educating. When debating which day to hang a flag (first time ever!!!) no-one could tell me so it's out for a few days, just to make sure :) Your unique take on June is absolutely great. It's wonderful to see other artists interpretations. Keep it up xx
ReplyDeleteGreat idea with the hats for the days of the month. Very effective page.

ReplyDeleteLove your creative journalling spaces. Can't decide which I like better :-)
ReplyDeleteWow- I just love your pages!!! Congrats on the 6 mo. mark!! This is my first year and so far I've been able to keep up. I'm always inspired by everyone's pages-thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment on my pages. Loving your June pages - the Union Jack is fab, think its great that a lot of us have chosen the Jubilee as a theme but everyone has interpreted it differently. I couldn't make my mind up about the date either??
