The Documented Life Project: Week 28

Since half the year has gone by I decided to create a spread to acknowledge it.

I’m not too fond of my July calendar.  It could have been better but certain things didn’t work out like I had hoped.  There are a total of 50 stars; 31 for the days and 19 little stars.

The week 28 prompt is to add an instagram or tiny photo.

Since next week on the 15th is Chessie’s birthday I decided to create the prompt using a picture of Chessie.  I created the background using torn strips of an old London road map and an advertisement that had patterns on it. The road map had letters and numbers on it, so since Chessie is turning 4 I made sure the 4 was still visible and I left the letter C visible as well since its her first initial. I painted over it with a purple acrylic wash so parts of it would still be visible. I used a black and a blue Sakura Identi-Pen and a white Faber-Castell Pitt Artist Pen for the doodles.
