Artist Heather Valentin "Her Majesty The Queen of Hearts" Journal by Nouel Alba using Heather Valentine Digital Art Work
Good Morning my lovely crafters. Wishing everyone a Happy Easter Sunday :O)
Today I bring you my 2nd Edition of FB and Blog News
I am pleased to share with you a mixed media journal for my fellow Design Team Scrapbook Stamp Society and Creando Con Detalles Latinas Stampers using Sherri Baldy Stamps Digital Image by Heather Valentin called "Her Majesty The Queen of Hearts".
About the Artist
(shhhhhhhhh lol I got this from her FB :O) ) {Sorry, I had to correct my FB News Letter and Blog News Letter and didn't have time to interview Heather Valentin. I'm still getting to know all the ladies. And I have to give an Artist their credit for such fabulous work :O)}
Heather Valentin is an amazing creator and painter.... a fine artist for over 20 years. Since at a young age Heather Valentine has always been artistically inclined.
For Heather, painting is more than a career.... it is her life, her heart and soul. It is an all consuming obsession. Through her art work you can tell the passion she has for what she creates.
Heather loves to explore all sorts of mediums, combining them and immersing herself into them and her painting... creating an enchanting and at times dark fantasy world, bringing her wildly vivid imagination to life. Heather works in traditional paints- acrylics, watercolors, inks and colored pencils and occasionally in 3-d mediums such as polymer clay, beads and fabrics.
Heather Valentine artwork can be found in various galleries, commerical and private collections across the globe. You will also find Heather's artwork on many different licensed products such as home decor, greeting cards, t-shirts, tiles, ornaments, tags...just to name a few from a variety of marketplaces.
Heather currently lives and works in her magical garden hollow with her two adorable and terribly spoiled shih tzu babies.

And I ask that if anyone uses her images or anyone elses images "Please" link your finish project back to the artist giving them credit for their hard work and effort.
I can't stress it enough, however; realize that there is no greater feeling for an Artist to see what other's has created or better yet said can create using their designs and seeing how others have incorporated their images into their projects. As well as how one design has inspired a person to create such beautiful projects with their images. Remember, a picture has a milllion meaning to it in everyone's eye's.
Description of my journal and what it means to me.......
I ask that all be respectful when commenting on my journal. I know there is a part that is a bit off but just as in any art work there is always a meaning behind ones art work and creation. As well as a story to tell. Thanks :O)
Above the center there is a pendant that say's "Courage" with 2 hearts that represent both my parents and the love and courage they both had. As well as the love they had not just for me and my big brother and their grand-kids but for their entire family and friends. They both lost their battle to Cancer. I also incorporated a medal charm ribbon in the egde of the heart to represent my parents.
On the side of the journal there is 2 more hearts that represents me and my big brother and between those hearts are my mom's favorite color flowers which she had helped me make back in 2008 since she was the one who showed me how to do paper dry'd roses. And because I only have a few left I rarely use them on my projects. Pink and yellow where my moms favorite colors. And in my eyes, I feel that it blended in perfect.
On the upper corner right, there is a message bottle with a key. The bottle represents the key to my future and where it will lead me one day. Inside the bottle I put hearts and butterflies. The hearts representing both the love that I would give and share with the world and the butterflies representing exploring a world of beauty and freedom and a sense of peace and acceptence at night.
Now further into the journal there is a flower spray made by Anna Fearer "More Paper Than Shoes" the rest is stuff I bought at Michaels and stuff Mabel M Rodriguez Larsen had sent me. The lace and flowers.
To see more of Anna Fearer flower sprays and paper flowers visit her FB page, blog and Etsy Shop. Link is provided below. She does amazing work and is known as the flower queen.
