Here's another of my journal pages I created last week whilst on my hols. This page is just for fun, I was enjoying playing around creating backgrounds and splashing some inks about. I like the dribbly effects on this page which I created with Starburst Stains (here) over acrylic paint. I've been having a circles moment recently, can you tell?! Everything has circles stamped on it! Ah well, it will pass and I'll move on to something else eventually........
I used some of Tim Holtz stamps on the background, and the phrenology head is from Invoke Arts. The words are from a fab plate of words by 7 Gypsies.
Here's how the pages look side by side in my A5 Moleskine:
School starts again on Monday so today I am preparing lessons (ah, back to reality). Byeeeeeeeeeeeee
Both pages are stunning Kate. The background colours are scrummy.... oh dear! I'm actually looking forward to Monday!! hehe...xx

ReplyDeleteOoooh, very cool,Kate!!
ReplyDeleteKate you always amaze me your pages are so wonderful, very creative I just wish I had some of your imagination for journaling.

Stunning pages as always!
ReplyDeleteLove the colours. You must be a very tidy worker to avoid one page being messed up when working on the other.

Love the pages Kate.... I love how everyone seems to be able to lay colour down - I just can't seem to get the hang of that.... Still not finished my April pages - thank goodness for my filofax where I am noting what I am up to...
ReplyDeletewe have been back to school a week now and it has just flown in....enjoy the last weekend before you go back...xoxo
Your pages always make me smile, Kate! LOVE those vibrant colors! Good luck with your lesson plans! Hugs, Terri xoxo

What a wonderful page, just love all the colours and the starburst stains, stunning. xx
ReplyDeleteso busy i don't seemed to have stopped by for ages - but still love your work. Through my book course I have discovered Brusho watercolour powder and Koh-i-noor paint-on water colour dyes which both have the most wonderful vibrant colours. Have you tried them?
ReplyDeleteFantastico Kate! I love the Invoke stamp and I thought I recognised the phrase from 7 Gypsies!
ReplyDeleteMe thinks I'm liking the look those staburst stains give....groan....another item on my wish list!
Sigh......why cant I master such fabby backgrounds ? Really striking Kate, always leave feeling inspired, have a lovely weekend, Katy x
ReplyDeleteYour pages are stunning ... I've lost my creative mojo, can't seem to do any creating and I'm itching to do some, but when I sit in my craft room nothing comes out. I'm sure it will pass ... keep up the great work, I love visiting.
ReplyDeleteOh so WONDERFUL!!! I love both of the pages together. I am also in love with that particular TH stamp set. :)
ReplyDeleteI love how the pink circles on the top of the left page look.
Beautiful!
Much Love
You are amazing...and thanks so much for sharing what you used!!
ReplyDeleteTwo more fabulous pages Kate. Love the bright colours so vibrant. Good luck next week.
ReplyDeleteOh stunning pages! Lovely colours. Kim
