The drum LO
The guest design
The sketch
holy moly roly poly
:)
I'm excited.
It felt so good to finally create something that I have SO much LOVE for. I've been drumming since I was 17. Right after I graduated from high school, I then became a student of drumming all summer long (and perfector of NOISE!? bwahahaa!) Such a crazy story. But long story short. I never wanted to play. Never dreamed I would BE behind a drum set. I'd always go to concerts and think-HECK yeah! The drummer rocks!
I guess you could say it was meant to be.
And my super cheesy instructional video was the BEST. I never learned anything from it other than Elvis singing pretty woman.
Hey, it came free with the set. And I turned that song into a punk song. Well, every song for that matter. I had a hard time keeping the beat :)
So here it is! YAY! I used Kl's papers for this and got all crazy artistic on it. (she inspires me to no end) I literally just let go all over this thing!
-glimmer mist
-spray paint
-rub ons
-PP
-acrylic
-water colors
This is the hardest secret I had to keep. And one of the hardest pages I've made. I felt like since it was the first it had to rock. It had to say everything I had felt about it the last 11 years and then some. Crazy. But it's here now. And I'm thankful. It's a piece I've been waiting this long to make and it's here. And it was worth it.
play on
play up
and play LOUD

Oh my WOW! This is freaking saweet. Seriously. You amaze me with your design talent, girl!
Your layout is truly amazing. I love love love your style and it's definitely inspiring me to think of scrapbooking in a more "free" light. I'm also shocked that there is another female drummer / scrapbooker out there! I just started playing a year ago. I'm not very good, but I hope to be someday. Thanks for sharing your work!
