Hello there,
After writing my first blog post in ages yesterday, I took a look at a few challenges and I remembered how much fun they are to enter. One that I particularly liked was the one over at 'Country View Challenges' and their theme this month is 'Time,' so I decided to make a page in my art journal. This was a great opportunity to get out my 'Somewhere In Time' stamps and one of my new stencils from Visible Image.
Here's the page that I've made:
I started by making a smooshed background With Aqua and Memento Sand and then I went on to stamp with the same colours. I used a dark grey ink to create the stencilled image, then I went around it with the aqua ink. Finally, I make some white splatters which helped to add a little contrast. I thought about just using clock stamps and stencils but decided that this was a little different and I'm happy enough with the finished result, so I'm adding it to the challenge.
I would also like to add this page to the challenges at:
'Time Out Challenges.' 'Challenge 230 - Inspired By Words'
‘Pearly Sparkles Challenge - ‘No Patterned Paper’
Try It On Tuesday - 'In With The New' New Stencil
Enjoy your day xx
