The Journal Cover

If you want to join in with making an A to Z of Me Journal through the month of February click through to the Challenge blog.

Here on this blog I am going to share how I made the cover of my journal.

The cover of the sketchbook I used is black.

I painted over the whole thing with white gesso and when it was dry I used black Archival Ink to stamp with.  However I forgot to take a photograph before I painted over the whole thing with acrylic paint.

I used a large stencil to wipe away some of the paint.

Then I stuck some letters on from my scrapbooking stash.

I may go back to it and put a border around it, not quite sure yet.

I hope you have enjoyed our 28 days together.   Thank you for following along.
