so as usual it started with me wiping some leftover paint on the page.. Frescos. Blues. and some random patches of Grunge Paste, just applied with a palette knife.
I then used a wooden fork that I found on the ground at Kew last time I visited, to make some patterns in the GP.
On Sunday I bought a pack of Fibralo pens and used some here, spritzing with water to allow it to drip and flow down the page - love how it's run through the patterns in the GP (you can see it better in the later photos)
Then I stamped the Sara Naumann hearts in black archival and shaded the edges with the same colour pens I used for my drips
added some criss-cross stamping (also a Sara stamp) in archival ink (Wendy Vecchi's Forget-me-not)
and some script stamping - the finer script is in Watering Can archival, and I used black for the Marilyn Monroe quote (these are also from the Sara Naumann new stamps)
and added some of the fabric Prima trim I bought too.
love the Fibralos - you can see the drips running through the fork patterns here.
finally, I doodled round the black hearts, with a fine nibbed drawing pen
Really had fun with this page, thanks almost entirely to Paperartsy!! only the pen came from somewhere else.
