This was a fun and interesting class. Lots of bright colours and (gasp) my own handwriting!!
But it was fun and very different for me as I like more subdued colourings in my work.
Doing the background was fun and messy with my fingers and getting those black drip marks was a little frustrating as I had no control over which way they went.
But I did it and I'm happy with the outcome.

I really should take on the motto "Don't judge a book by it's cover" as I had at the start of this lesson.
While it looked awesome and fun, I didn't have the correct products to do this as per the lesson, so used Glimmer mist, Bloom Spray and a Lindy's Stamp Gang spray. So they were all transparent and not solid colour sprays.

Just a little show and tell of my December Daily from last year.
A pretty simple book with covers that I made myself, painted, covered, decorated and glitzed up to be my final product. I used the colours Blue, Red, White and green.With it only finished later on this year (as I ran out of time) it ended up being pretty simple and bare compared to all my other December Daily albums.

Now those that know me, know that I struggle working with any shade/hue/tint of purple. I guess it's been my most disliked colour since I was very young and having a cousin who was absolutely obsessed with purple. Everything she had and owned was purple.I don't mind lilac's and mauve's depending on what the item is as those colours remind me of Granny's and old gardens.
