Hi, there. Country View Crafts Challenge blog has a new challenge called "Word Play" chosen by the supremely talented and very lovely, Alison Bomber.
I've created a journal page.
I started by brayering Fresco Paperartsy paint on my journal (A4, Seawhite so you can get an idea of the size) - think it's Beach Hut, but started this a few days ago just for fun and I didn't make a note!
Stencilled Peacoat (the opaque version) with the JoFY flower stencil
and when that was dry, overlaid one of Lin Brown's bubble/spot stencils over the flower stencil on some of the flowers and sponged Snowflake (with the same piece of cut and dry I used for the Peacoat, so some of the colour has come through too)
and on the remaining flowers stencilled some script in Snowflake - I didn't keep the flower stencil in place this time, and just rolled the stamp without a block
by now I'd decided to use this page for the Word Play challenge (grin) so it was time for some words!! I used the Sara Naumann Paperartsy set ESN08 and black archival ink. To fill some of the gaps I used the JoFY mini stamp Lovebirds, but masked one bird each time so I didn't get both together. Coloured them with a mixture of Yellow Submarine Fresco and Sharpie markers.
I hope you like it!
