    August Face It Art Journaling challenge
    WEEK 2 of 4
    Out of the MOUTH the ♥ Speaks

    Oh our lips and the things that can come out of them can be healing or deadly. This week I would love you to ponder your words and the life we carry within our lips.
    As a Mom, I kiss booboos, I can also can cut with my lips by my words.
    Passion is with lips, and yet gossip can kill the same relationship.
    See where I am going, we have two lips top and bottom, lets try and bring opposites or opposing forces to our lips this week.

    Here is my part 2-Lips

    This is a huge help for the prize hand outs! It is also a great place for me to make sure I loved you all up in the gallery. I sometimes lose my place and I so enjoy seeing your challenge be built!

    Ama, I cracked up with yours as I said I had to see the close up to "read your lips" and love the shark teeth! I think the prizes Anne are absolutely spectacular! The designers are oh so gracious with their gifts and prizes.. even Mye showing up and offering a coupon for 3 quick chatters ... ok so it shut us up for a few minutes so the chat didn't roll so fast.. talk about 2 lips.. our hands were typing faster then our lips would be saying.. !! Loved it, and darn the only problem is completing the weeks challenge on the same day and having to wait a week for the next edition!! Thanks again for the fun time and thank you everyone for your companionship through this fun journey!!

    Ladies, let's follow Ama's lead and post a close-up of our lips in the gallery. Owise how to see what we allowed to spill out of them? Then we'll post the whole face in the layout thread.

    Yes? No?

    I think if it is small writing like Ama did then it would be important to do so. I have everything on the psd with my first layout and it is going to be a toughy for me to group those pieces since they are blended so much. just my thoughts mind you. I like seeing everyones lips though!! :)

    Messy isn't required. As long as you're expressing yourself :)

    Here are my lips close up -

    I'm bummed that you can't read the green writing. It showed up really well on my computer. it says "sometimes I say all the right things." The speech bubble is a little small, too. It continues the thought of the journaling and the Pink Reptile Designs' Talk Geeky to Me keyboard alpha. Those say "I speak sarcasm, obscure quotes, AND" The alpha says "random geekery" the speech bubble says, "with a side of fangirly gushing." It wasn't so small on my computer. I guess I should have cropped the lips. I just thought since it was transparent it wouldn't matter. I am new to the whole transparency thing. Oh well, live and learn, right? This was a fun challenge. :)
