The Documented Life Project Week Twelve
Hello Everyone!
I'm a bit late with my week 12 post. Maybe because I am unenthusiastic about the page. It's one of those "it worked so well in my head" pages. At least it compares favorably to my week one page, LOL! The challenge was to use magazine clippings in some way:
I collaged a collection of aqua magazine photos onto my watercolor paper base and masked it with circles before adding layers of gesso and stamping. I decided I really liked the masks, so I added most of them back into the mix. A few bits of lace and trimmings were stapled in, along with some printed and handwritten text and doodling. To finish things of, I glued in some leftover butterflies.
The splotchy pinkness comes from Dylusions spray. Not the fault of the ink, just my inexperience. Next time I'll be a bit more cautious!
That's all I have for today. I am behind on posting my cards, and hope to catch up later in the week.
I hope you are all having a terrific day!
Elizabeth

OOOH so pretty! Love the lace and mesh.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle! This is such a fun way to use up all of the scraps on the worktable.
