Amazing You Page 2

This is page 2 of the 8 page mini book I started yesterday.

I used acrylic paint with my Gel Press to make this background and apply it to my chipboard page.

"Amazing you" is another stamp and die from Richard Garay collection. The image was inked with archival black on white card stock and then die cut using my Vagabond. Inking foam tool with distress ink was used to soften the edges of die cut image. Little girl image was inked with archival and matte to black card stock and applied to mini book using collage medium. I added a tiny bit of color using distress crayons to stamped image. I added vintage photo around edges of mini book page to finish. 

I'm adding this page as my Day 25 of 30 day coloring challenge over on Kathy Rocoosin blog. 

Red White and Blue

Happy 4th Everyone in America! 

This was one of the easiest pieces I've made in a long time. Adhere print to journal page, apply paint, stamp images, add gesso over the top with watermark stamp from 

Tim Holtz; Americana Silhouettes #122.

I forgot to add that I used masking tape to mask off some words on the stamp before inking and peeled it off before stamping on page. 

Embrace Imperfection

I've been working on this piece over two weeks. She was drawn freehanded and painted Whimsy Girl with watercolor crayons, watercolor pencils and acrylics.

A couple weeks ago Robyn gave a free online class to make Whimsy Girls. 

Thanks for Looking and Have a nice day!
