Time for another Craft Barn Q&L challenge - this fortnight, the song lyric or quote is to include the word Mind, or Ignorance (or both). I went for a quote by Confucious "Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance"
I brayered my journal page with Peacock Feathers distress ink which gives an almost stippled look to the background.
I used Watering Can archival ink for my stamping, Tim Holtz images with second generation stamping for some of the ???'s
I used the Paperartsy mini stamp on a piece of smoothy card and painted the image with watered down Dolly Mixture Fresco, and Beach Hut for the glasses.
I wrote the quote on my page with a Pilot drawing pen, going back over the letters to get a slightly thicker lettering.
and finally edged the page with Black Soot distress ink.

I couldn't get the CB blog to refresh. Had I not visited, I would not have known the challenge. I got to it from your link, because the one I'm using is still showing Logic. This is a lovely quote and great page, too. Really love the colors you chose.
