Smash-ing Thursday


Hi everyone,

It's *Thursday*... and it means that it's time for another *Smash-ing* post ;-)

Sorry for not posting anything last Thursday, but I completely forgot that it was *Thanksgiving Day*... duuuhhhh!!! So my bad! :-(

Anyhow, here are a few pages that I worked on recently. They're all about *books* and *quotes*.

As many of you know, I'm a *bookworm* :-) I like to read about anything, but mostly about *Fantasy* and *Paranormal Romance* ;-) So I thought that it would be cool to add a couple of my favorite quotes from some of my favorite books in my Smash journal.


Yeap... *I'm officially a dork*!! LOL!

I like "Diary of a Wimpy Kid"... and I never thought that I would like it so much ;-) I bought these books for my youngest son... and this day he leaves one of them on the kitchen counter. And while I was cooking, I saw it and started to flip the pages. The drawings were so neat and it looked like an easy read, so I started reading it and before I knew it, *I was hooked*! So yes, I had to dedicate a few pages to this *cool kid* ;-)


A few of my favorite quotes from this book...


To decorate these pages, I added acrylic paint to the background... did the dripping technique and added more water for a wash-out effect. I also distressed the edges with Walnut Stain. It turned out darker of what I expected, but oh well... with mixed media you never know :-s

Now, I did a second spread, which I will share with you, but...

Warning: Some of these quotes are *R* rated... and even though I erased a few lines for blogging purposes... still if you think you'll be easily offended, please do not read them!!


Like I said, these are just a few of my favorite quotes. I do plan to add more... and when I do, I'll share them with you ;-)

And later today, I'll be having a second post with another cool project that I'm sure you're going to love... so stick around ;-)
