If you want to join in with making an altered book through the month of July click through to the Passport to Art challenge blog.
Here on this blog I am going to share how I made the page for today's prompt. Today's inspiration is Ruth and the technique is to use Liquid Pearls.
You will remember from yesterday that I decided to fold the page over. I thought it could be turned into yet another pocket! I put the masking tape on.
I decided I would put the Liquid Pearls on the tag. I like this heart so I used it twice on the tag. I should have waited for the first one to dry before I did the second one as I squashed a bit of the first one doing the second one!
While that was drying I started on my page. I thought I would use acrylic paint for a change.
I'm not convinced I made the right decision! It has turned out to be far too bright. I stencilled with the turquoise but that hasn't helped! I put the doublesided tape on to make the pocket.
And stuck it down. I stencil with a lighter turquoise paint and when that was dry drew with a black pen.
The page looked a bit blank so I added the stamped circles.
Then I added the quote and the verse.
And wrote the journaling on the back of the stencilled tag.
Thanks for stopping by.

Oh I like the mix of brighter colours in your book and the additions look great - I love the circular stamps!
ReplyDeleteI really like the asymmetrical hearts. Not sure I have liquid pearls, but maybe I'll use some perfect pearls or twinkling h2o's.
