 How are you this week? We are here with another video for the Facebook group, free teaching group, My Creative Year. Our topic in the group this month is passion. And this week, our prompt is temper. Passion is a word of strong emotion. It isn't, in my opinion, always strong loving emotions. You can be passionate and angry. You can be passionate and temperamental. You can really, like if you think about it. So how do I express that on my page and add to the page that I started creating last week? I've been thinking about that. And I'm not sure I have a clear answer, to be honest with you. I know what I'm tempted to do, which is to add to my page. I really wanna use this bubble wrap and do some like dots of bubble wrap, like to start with. Well, I think I'm gonna just talk you through this. I've got my basket of Dina Wakeley paints out here. And I'm kind of looking for a color that to me speaks of temper. For some reason this morning, green. I have no idea why the green is speaking to me, but it is, I don't know. I must really like her magenta color because I think I have three of those. I could do red. I could do red. I could do red writing. And then green dots, that actually might work. So let's get out a gel pen. I have these PaperMate InkJoy gel pens, which I love. They don't make white, unfortunately, but they do make some great colors. So I'm gonna grab the red one. And I'm going to do some sort of messy journaling on here like I did on the hearts. And I might do it right next to the hearts. What the words passion and temper mean, let's see. Doesn't have to be legible to anybody. I don't want it to be the focus of the page. I want the word passion and the definition I wrote to be the focus of the page, at least for the moment. So let's see, protective dot off of that. Yeah. And then I wanna take my bubble wrap. I'm gonna put a little bit of the green. I don't know why I want this green on there, but I do. And this is from a mailing envelope from something I ordered. Let's try it on a scrap and see what kind of impression it's gonna make first. Not exactly what I thought it would make, but okay. I need to cut it into a smaller piece. Cause that's just way too big. I'm gonna dry it. I have a green, one of those gel pens in green. So I'm gonna pick out a few of the dots from the bubble wrap and I'm going to circle them with the green pen. I like using tone on tone because it adds texture and definition to the shapes without overshadowing the black writing. It's more subtle and it gives you layers and texture. I love that. I'm gonna leave that for this week. That was quick and fast, wasn't it? But like five minutes. So this week we are just creating a page and over the whole month and we're adding to it. That's what I said last week. So we started out with the topic word passion and I defined the word. Then I added some imagery and messy journaling with the prompt last week, which it was what are you passionate about. Then we added to it this week in red, which is a strong temper mental color in my opinion. It really says, if you're in an angry, fiery, passionate temper, I think of the color red. So we did some messy writing in the red. And for some reason this week I wanted to add green. I don't know what that's about. So we did the bubble wrap impressions in green and then we did some outlining of the circles in a green gel pen. I love the way that's turning out. We will be back next week to do the last prompt and finish the page. I hope you're enjoying the process this week.
