A journal page completed yesterday. I used lots of layers of acrylic paint, some of it by accident. I added some black with a brayer and it was a BIG mistake so I wiped it off with a trusty old baby wipe and I quite liked the effect of what I created by mistake! I added some old sheet music, stamping with bottle tops, added distress inks, crayons, a stamp by Invoke Arts and an image from Paperstreet. I did the wobbly writing with a calligraphy dip-pen. I love using dip pens - it feels like stepping back in time.
Now going to dodge the rain on a day out on a typical English summer day (grey and rainy).
Off on hols soon for some much needed sunshine.....have been prepapring some journal backgrounds ready to go. More later......
Byee for now.
Super journal page! Don't you just love when a mistake turn out for the good. I have done that with the black paint - I quite like the effect it has as well. Baby wipes save the day!!! :)
