Simple Journal Page by Debs Wainwright

Hi
everyone I've been playing in my journal this week with just paint and
stencils. You can can get great effects using minimal tools.
Here's what I did
Using a
poppy foam stamp I created the background by stamping in 3 colours over the
page. This wasn't really done randomly, as I wanted to ensure that you got to
see the colours individually as well as a whole. I also wanted to leave some
white, so that it didn't go too dark.
I dried
the pages, and then using a stencil and
black paint I created the feature first; this was so that I could see
where would be best to stamp the sentiments, so that it looked balanced. I
wanted the women to stand out more from the background so used a white Gelatos
around their bodies which pushed them out from the background.
I also
used some background stencils to give more interest. I loved the way this tied
it all together, as before it wasn't working for me.
Here’s What I Used:
I hope you like these pages, as they were fun to make
take care for now

ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful, debs, the white gelato cloud makes it look like they are walking out onto a stage. The whole thing makes me think of my crafty friends I've been with today!
