Artist-Inspired Chunkies




I knew this chunky theme would be a challenge for me--mainly because I do not paint or draw.  How could I possibly create chunky pages in the style of an artist I admire?  Well, one day it came to me.  I found these mustache stickers and for some reason, when I turned them up-side down, they reminded me of Frida Kahlo's unibrow!

I proceeded to cut out photos from the scores of catalogs in my stash and then began matching the "unibrows" to the faces.  This is what I came up with!  I framed the unibrowed faces with strips of metallic stickers and placed a small embellishment where the lines intersected for interest.  I used "Frida" post-it notes that someone had given to me to decorate the back of  my pages.  Lucky for me, the other chunky players have a sense of humor!  I think they'll all get a chuckle out of these pages!
