The new challenge starts today over at Try It On Tuesday and the theme is "slap it on" paint,colour,textures ,be as messy as you like. The team have some fabulous examples over on the challenge blog. I might have gone a bit overboard on my journal page but I certainly got very messy and thoroughly enjoyed doing so. Gesso'd the page and then roughly added some Paperartsy Fresco paint,added some torn book paper (most of it ended up covered up)the birds,paintbrush, feathers and striped pieces are all from a serviette, used some blue paint to stencil the branches,stamped the words onto a piece of tissue,everything is stuck on with modpodge except the little chipboard birdcage which kept falling off so used cosmic shimmer glue for that. There is some stamping with some old Tim Holtz stamps and thats it. Hope you will join us and make your own "slap it on" piece.
That sounds like my sort of crafting Joan, messay as hyou can get. You have created as lovely collage piece with so much interest to hold the eye.
