Once again I have been using Spanish Mulberry and Space Cadet Fresco - I think these are going to be a favourite combination for some time to come
I also used some of my own music tissue wrap on this page.
Used a mixture of brushing and pouncing the colour on this page, under and over the tissue wrap.
the right hand page I used the same colours (with a thin wash of Claret too) but streaking the paint down the page, adding the Snowflake whilst the Space Cadet was still damp to add to the streaky effect.
Stencilled some tiny circles in the new opaque Peacoat.
Next, the stamping (Wendy Vecchi flourish stamp and Cornflower Blue archival ink) and then some black - script stamp (from Paperartsy Clocks 1 plate)
Before some more stencilling - reverse chickenwire in Little Black Dress Fresco, and some pouncing with the remaining paint and cut and dry foam.
Looks a bit busy now, especially the first page - time for the accent images...
I used the same Kaisercraft stamp for both pages, stamping it on white card and attaching it to the left hand page.....
Before cutting it into strips for the right hand page.
I outlined each group of words with a black PITT artist pen.
I'm really happy with these pages!

FANTASTIC pages. That is a gorgeous colour combination.
I'm not surprised you're happy with these pages Helen ...... they're gorgeous. I absolutely love the colours especially how the cornflower blue works on top of that background. Stunning stuff!

Gorgeous pages H agree that you should be happy with them. They are so colourful and a fab sentiment.
Really enjoying both Space Cadet and Lake W colours must try mixing with the reds:-)
great pages Helen and the colour combi is great...love that stamp :D
Fabulous pages both of them! I saw photos of the workshop and it looks as if it was a great success and what a fab idea to make this with some left overs so to speak, that KC stamp just finishes the fabulous background off perfectly!
Great piece!
Yup... I'm a fellow grabber of all leftovers, so I'd've been fighting you for them! Love what you've done here, and the colours work beautifully.

Loving those Paint colours and the sentiment is one of my favourites. I love to use tissue in my artwork so have to agree with you gathering up all the tissue . Tracy x
Another gorgeous page to add to that absolutely fantastic journal of yours, it sure is a little treasure.
