Supplies Used:
That’s
Crafty! Black Gesso (coming soon)
I started by braying lots of different colours of
acrylic paint onto 2 of the white/greyboard pages of my journal. I also scrapped
some of the paint on with an old credit card.
Taking the Alphabet stencil, I drew round each of
the letters I was using with a white Posca pen and then drew round the outside
of the letters with a black Posca pen.
I stamped the eyes from the Lynne’s Affirmations
stamp set 3 times directly onto the paint covered white/greyboard page and then
I stamped 3 acrylic rectangles with the eyes. I coloured the eyes with Posca
pens on the opposite side to my stamped image, as I wanted a 3d effect. I then stuck them over the stamped images on
the journal page with 3D Gloss Gel.
You can’t see it very well in my pictures but I
also stamped the butterfly wings from the Affirmations Stamps Set on the
opposite page of the journal. I stamped them in black and then stamped over
them again with the Moonlight White ink. I then stuck 3 of the hexagon shaped
acrylic pieces over the butterfly wings, again using 3D Gloss Gel.
Next I placed the Butterfly Wings stencil on my
journal pages and painted through this with black gesso. When this was dry, I placed
the stencil back over the image and stamped the text from the Textures stamp
set through the stencil. Keeping the stencil in place, I then drew round the
images with a metallic marker, removed the stencil and drew round the images
with a white Posca pen.
