Happy New Year everyone! May all good things come your way this year.
The past few days I’ve been frantically decorating journal pages, inspired by some tutorials at Joggles. After the first hesitation I found it very addictive to ruin a perfectly white page by splashing ink, paint or glue on it and watch what happened. And this time NO WAX was involved!
Here is a snapshot of my worktable:
And here are some of the pages. The book is about 5×8″, designed to work mixed media, which means that the paper does not fall apart when you wet it.
Of course the first page gets a crow...;-)
Here I tried a simple drawing of scissors, which were on my table, used a self-cut bee stamp and collaged on the flowers. The lettering is with rub-on letters.
A drawing of an old Japanese ornament, coloured with LuminArte and sprayed with water.
And I finally got back to the Zentangles again!
This is on the back of a page, where the colour bled through. Self-cut stamp + a bit of tangling.
This page turned out pretty by itself! Watered down ink with silk salt added.
