Today I experimented with gesso.
I spread a thick layer of gesso over the left hand page and stamped into it. Each time I lifted the stamp on the left I pressed it down on the righthand page. I used the Dylusions stamp from the Further Round the Edge set. The page on the right is ready for tomorrow.
When the gesso was dry I sprayed it with Dylusions mica ink.
When the ink was totally dry I stamped over it with black and plum Archival Ink. Here I used the stamps from the Dylusions Around the Edge set.
And then played a bit with some lettering.
H'mm, love stamping into gesso and done a fair bit of it lately. Looks like a lovely playtime x
ReplyDeleteI haven't stamped into gesso yet. Sounds kinda cool and fun! Thanks for the tip, and for sharing your pages! They are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteNow I want to stamp in gesso, too. And that mica ink sounds (and looks) really interesting...thanks for sharing!
