Creating is a great stress reliever for me. This month's small art trade for heARTist Trading Cards is bookmarks. While digging through my drawers of rubberstamps (I am on a mission to use them!), I came across one with a quote from Virginia Woolf, "I don't believe in aging. I believe in altering ones aspect to the sun." It became my inspiration. I used watercolor paints for the background then added a piece of Washsi tape that I found on clearance at Michael's down the center. Added the two rubbertamped images, a sticker that says "live, laugh, love,"some dimensional paint and fiber. Went to bed happy and woke this morning with a smile on my face.
Does creating help you relax?
I LOVE LOVE LOVE that quote - and the bookmark is pretty awesome, too!
ReplyDeleteIt is fabulous. I don't know why I haven't worn the stamp out. Thanks!
