Hello everyone,
For today's AALL & Create project I have made a journal page using another Miss Dee image. This one is from one of the latest releases by Janet Klein and she is called Farmer Dee. I love all the different guises she has.
Here's how I made this:
I made the background with my gelli plate. It was dirty and had some left over paint on it. So I added some more paint in green, blue, yellow and a fuchsia colour, let it dry and rolled over a layer of white paint, then pulled a print. I didn't expect it to come out this nice but when it did I decided to use it for this project. I added some stencilling, again with white paint. and toned it down slightly.
Next I stamped the images I was going to use. I wanted more chickens on the page but I wanted some looking the other way so I used a small gelli plate to reverse the image. You stamp the image on the gelli plate and then put the paper on and roll over with a brayer. Make sure not to press too hard when stamping.
I added stamping to my background using similar colours plus grey and black.
I fancied doing some watercolouring today so that's what I did. I think it came out nice.
I added a small sliver of washy tape for Miss Dee and the chickens to stand on.
And here it is all together. I think it came out nice !
