Using the supplies from my February My Creative Scrapbook kit I added one of the papers to my surface with gel medium.
When I glue down a while page I typically just go for it… I dont’ measure anything, I glue it down then trim around the edges
Using Gel medium I glued down the lace and applied stencil paste through a brick wall stencil.
Adding white gesso through the stencil from the kit,
Once dry I covered the whole page in clear Gesso
Using the stamp from the kit and some archival ink I stamped flourish in a few places.
Also added some script writing using the same ink pad.
Time to add some color.
I am using Arteza watercolor and just painting the edges and spraying it with water so it runs down the page. I kept repeating until I received the desired effect.
Using the embellishments from the kit I tried different placements and items until I found the right fit.
I added distress oxide to darken the focal point/card that I picked out. Sprayed the card with water to add some droplet spots in the ink.
I used Gel Medium to attach all the embellishments/flowers to the page!
As a finishing touch, I splattered the page with white and black acrylic paint.
