the Queen

 Hello everyone,

Welcome to my blog where today I am sharing a journal page which I made for AALL & Create. 


How cute is she?? 

Here's how I made it:


I started off making a gelli print. I brayered yellow and lime acrylic paints on my plate and took a print, I then added two shades of turquoise and put this stencil on. With a piece of scrappaper I took off some of the paint. I then removed the stencil and printed over my yellow and lime print. 


Next, again with the brayer I rolled some white paint around the edges to tone it all down a little and almost give a cloud like finish. I also added white splatters. 


I used this stamp and white embossing powder to get some more interest. 


With grey and black ink I added some more stamping. I used Versafine Clair, of course it won't dry very easy on painted backgrounds so I heatembossed the stamping with clear embossing powder. 


I added some washi tape... 


Next I stamped this little girl in her bikini, so cute ! I did think to do something with her though; first I thought of a woolly hat but then I saw the crown, so that was that. 


And here she is in full glory ! I added some cross stitching with thin metal wire after poking holes with a needle. I added some shading under her feet and some clippings stickers, first on her crown and then on the page. It's a bit of fun but sometimes the choosing of the sentiments etc. takes me almost as long as making the whole page.

  1. LOVE this page, Corrie, particularly the way you've used the stamp to emboss on the background. What a great effect!
