MORE PAGES

While I was having trouble getting pictures to upload to my computer, I did a few pages without taking stage photographs. The one above has a Distress ink background and used all kinds of collagey bits, including some washi tapes that I'm learning to love. Actually this might even be a Tim Holtz tape ... I've got both.

The page below uses a soluble crayon background, done in the layers I'm so fond of (I've done a number of pages like this). It all began with that coloured snippet which says "tomorrow" and went from there ....
Lots of Promarkers used here - I'm really getting to like these and find them very versatile. The fact that they tend to bleed through paper isn't a problem because I always stick two pages together anyway.

  3. I love how you use curves on your page and write over them in an arc. I really struggle to write in a straight line...Lea x

  4. So glad to read that you are beginning to feel you have a place in your home and area now - and that you may be expanding into a new home in your art too! I've not used promarkers, but love the vibrant effect against those subtle shaded backgrounds. Lovely on the eye!

I love your comments and find them very helpful, but only have limited strength and energy so have chosen to follow just a few blogs rather than leave thank-yous for the comments I receive. Hope you understand, and I do SO appreciate your feedback.
