Love

 Hello!  I'm back with another process in pictures post.  This one is one of my favorites because of the pretty colors and grunge look.  I started by laying down torn book pages using matt medium.  

I set chipboard letters on my page and sprayed over them with "berry" alcohol ink.  I added black acrylic paint to the right edge and dry brushed over the rest of the page to make the book page edges stand out.  

I made puddles of blue alcohol ink, made splatters by hitting my paint brush in it, and added some on other places on the page to make some purple.  I prayed a piece of burlap with "butterscotch" alcohol ink and adhered it with matte medium.  I went over the black on the page with sandpaper to give it more of a grudge look.  

I added a peice of washi, random clump of thread, and a button.  I wish I wouldn't have but I added gold acrylic to the burlap.  I also added some more black acrylic to the washi.  

I added butterflies with a stencil and StaZon metallic silver ink.  The circles are a stamp that I made.  I also added unreadable writing stamp with blue StaZon.  I went around the edges of the letter and butterflies with a super fine painters pen.  

I added gesso over the entire page with a card and added a black stamp to the top butterfly.  I went around all the edges with the painters pen, smearing as I went.  The smaller letters are stamps that I went over again with the painters pen.  

I hope you enjoyed this post :)  Leave a comment!!!

City On A Hill


This is one of my favorite!  I almost always start off having no idea what I'm going to be making.  I layered down dark blue and craft cut up card stock from Heidi Swap's "Hello Today" 12x12 paper pad.  I absolutely love the entire paper pad.  In person you can see some of the flowers and arrows showing through.  I applied gesso to the entire page.  I used spray ink: pink, yellow, and brown.  Heavy charcoal around all the edges with white distress ink on the building edges first.  Let me know if this is confusing!  lol.  Yellow acrylic paint for the windows, outline in black pen. I added some color with jellyroll metallic pens.  The stars were created with a stamp, embossing ink, and tinsel embossing powder.
