Saturday night was the best night ever with the friends I love! I had a Halloween party which involved drink, food and crazy dancing but also myself and my friends used sparklers and I told them to wave them about so when I took the photograph the camera would track all the lines with the light! The correct aperture I used was Lo F5/6 which would capture the light hen it's really dark. The results were pretty good considering I never used a tripod or anything.

I can't keep track of this!
Since I left college I was told to keep updating this but I haven't.... Until now! I've been pretty busy looking for a job to get money for things I want and also helping around the house but recently I had a go at decoupage:D I'm gonna try and make the basic letters of my name out of cardboard or something but I finished the letter 'E' and I must say I'm very pleased with it! Hopefully my next project I'm going to do is tie dye the Captain America shield onto a plain white t-shirt and then I want to melt crayon wax to make small candles in glasses.
Anyway here is a picture of the letter I decpupaged!

Sun! Sun! Sun!
Well yesterday it was probably the sunniest day so far and it's that time of the year where it's Instagram time as the sun is out and all the flowers are pretty! I was walking to college and I came across an awesome picture! I edited it on InstaSize and here are the results XD

Melting Crayon
As part of my memory book I also wanted to put in some crafty things and one the craft ideas I got from Pinterest was crayon melting and all I did was get some crayons, used a hairdryer to melt them and then aimed downwards for the drips. Here is the end result:D

Memory Book.
For a few weeks I have thinking so hard on units that I haven't actually had time to do my own stuff so this week I have decided to create a memory book and everyday I would fill a couple of pages up of memories with family and friends and of course college! Even though this is a blog I won't be posting a picture on this post but the next one I definitely will! I am literally so excited about starting this book and it will help me concentrate on art and also the memories that are stored in my head.

Typical Fan Girl!
For my paper making unit I am creating a top hat that is getting covered in hand made paper with certain song lyrics and will be printed on from Lino and today I tried to print out one certain song lyric from a song called 'I Feel Alive' by We The Kings and the song kind of takes me back a few memories when my grandmother passed away a few years ago and the song helped me a lot to get me back on track with life because it's such a happy feel-good song!
The start of cutting the lino took me 2 days because I had to trace the lyrics onto tracing paper and then trace it again on the other side of the tracing paper and then rub it on the lino so the backwards writing has been transferred onto the lino and then it was the start of the cutting process. When I finished cutting the lino, I started to print a few off for some trials runs and then discovered that my handmade paper is too small for the type to fit on so I just used plain A3 paper and used 2 sheets. The first sheet, I used a red printing ink for the first 2 prints and then the second lot of prints I added yellow printing ink to make the colour lighter and then printed onto the paper. The second piece of paper was for darker colours but the prints didn't turn out as well as the first lot of prints.
