Just a quick one today; I've had so much fun creating these art journal pages that I wanted to share them with you. I used all VivaLasVegaStamps! Most of these from the wonderful Background Plate, I also used the butterflies, the sentiment 'Whassup?' and of course TweedleDee and TweedleDum...
This page started out a total disaster as I sprayed it with Dylusions (Green/Lime and black), hated it and put it aside. The model paste was also already on it. Today I thought I should try and salvage it.. So I painted clear gesso over it and of course it was an even bigger disaster ! lol So I got out the Acrylic paints and painted over it.. Much better. I did a lot of stamping and used an eraser on top of a pencil to stamp the white dots with gesso. TweedleDee and TweedleDum were stamped on a blank page out of a book and quickly coloured with pencils. I cut them out and adhered them on top of some washi tape. I also adhered some washi tape randomly around the pages. Lastly I stamped 'Whassup?', first with white ink and then in black overtop.
These stamps are available from www.vlvstamps.com or if you live in Holland at http://thestampingcottage.nl.
That was it !
Hope you like it.....

FANTASTIC pages Corrie, great salvage!
ReplyDeleteI find it amusing that you "had such fun" with "an even bigger disaster," Corrie! But you ended up with a great journal spread! I have several VLVStamps, but you still tempted me to their site, where I became lost in the "Naughty" section! Made my day! Mwah!
ReplyDeleteYup, love it
