I'll share today what I sent to Dawn in our exchange for Wreck This Journal. I made this card to include a note for Dawn and thought this Shel Silverstein quote was perfect for what WTJ is all about.
I decided to send Dawn the page with my hand print because it was a "part" of me and not just something that I doodled or created. I first traced my hand onto the page and then painted the hand with Americana acrylic paint in Sea Breeze and pressed it into the outline. Ooey gooey messy fun! I added a few lines when it was dry and a little heart into the centre that didn't "take" the paint on the page. My heart line and my life line.
I completed Dawn's doodle...in my own inimitable style...and thought this was the only way really...the bottom and the top work so beautifully together!!
Posh has never looked more "posh"... and in reality I'm sure this is what her feet must look like after hours and days and months and years in those shoes she wears..............I call her "P. Posh" - Post Menopausal Posh!

This is touching, creative, and hilarious - all at the same time!! You have amazing talent Sherry Lee.
Thank you for your comment on my post today - demonstrating that you are also very wise. You are so right and I will take your sage advice. Perhaps instead of "keep going" I was looking for someone to say "stop". You did - and I will.
Kindness is so healing - thank you for yours.
Love it, seems like a lot of fun :)
You are so cool, Miss Sherry ! You made em laugh and smile really big with this post. I am sure Dawn will love these pieces and will feel kind of honored to get so much for the talented "you" on paper ! Love it !
And Posh is hilarious !!! Imagine if we did doodles of all those skinny, plastic people and show what they "really" look like ? Now there's a book I would buy ! ;)
Happy, happy Friday !
Lovely, Sherry Lee! Love the way you completed the doodle! Take care!!
Sherry,
Oh my gosh! I can't wait to get this to add to my journal. I love the hand print and what you said about it being a part of you. So very sweet. Thank you so much for agreeing to swap with me. I love connecting with other artists, as I don't get the chance to do so locally very often, the internet is really my only avenue.
Too funny! Wonderful. Loved the Silverstein poem and the finished doodle ... still laughing.
I haven`t done a hand paint print - since i was little !! I didn`t expect that from you - i thought of a butterfly ;o) But then - you`re doing things out of your box for this journal venture .
Talk about ROFL - for posh !! It actually suits her - to me ... !!
