Tim Holtz Lace stencil
Paperartsy infusions
Parperartsy stamps - Lin Brown (ELB01) and Emma Godfrey (18)
fresco paints
archival inks
posca pens
The background was a complete mish mash - the pages began as brayer clean ups when using fresco paints - to that I added some infusions and spritzed with water , added more and added some pearl glaze. I mixed this in then did some stencilling - with fresco paint through the TH stencil.
Next I went onto stamping - the flower heads came from Lin Brown - as did the stalks - some were stamped in archival ink and others in fresco paint.
I then added some words from the dream stamp set by emma godfrey - I also added some of the smaller stamps too. Finally i used a white posca pen to add the white highlights.
Sorry I don't have process photos for this - it was much needed therapy!
I do hope you like this and feel inspired to join us at stamps and stencils.
Big hugs
