painted borders

I've been slacking! Of course, it's due to fatigue and pain, but, still, I feel like I've been slacking. Anywho, here are some borders I made in Violette's art journaling class! I love the class... check it out here (http://violette.ca/). I used a credit card to smear paint on paper. Then, I cut the paper into these strips:

    Hi Erica,
    I am a "late" enroller of the Art Journalling Class from ArtTrader. I saw your entry on the forum and immediately felt led to encourage you and your art. (I suffer from Rheumatoid Arthritis, so I know what it is like to live with chronic pain)
    I hope you will be feeling better soon, and hope to see some of your art journalling on ArtTrader!
    Lord Bless you!

    Hello Erica..I love these "strips" of color and design. If you have not done so, check out teesha moores collage videos on www.teeshascircus.blogspot.com see how she uses strips for borders in her journals.
    I am glad you are doing art, it is very healing.
    You are a very brave young lady...my prayers will reach you.
    Love and light...Cory
