DLP - Disappearing trick

Art Challenge: Tissue Paper
Journal Prompt:  The Disappearing Trick

I started off with a page and threw some paint down and stamped over it.

I had some Christy Tomlinson She Art tissue paper that I didn't want to rip as the sentiments are lovely;  she felt like she could fly. She had the desire to create. She was ok with being imperfect. I also had some spotty tissue paper that I decided to use.

I found a quote online and added that - another page done!


I normally come up with a word for the year and was sent this link today from Carrie Hensley - it's a free course called unravelling 2016 and it also has a free 5 day course helping you choose your word for the year.

Art Challenge: Deli Paper
Journal Prompt:  You Had Me At Hello

Whilst thinking about this prompt I was listening to Adele's new album - the quotes on either side of the page are the first few lines in the first two songs. It got me thinking about a past (thankfully) relationship so I came with this page. 

It started off with masking tape and washi, I added paint, gold brayered on the pages and then deli paper under the figures.

I added the quote with my new dymo letratag :)

Hope you are being crafty

Art Challenge: Silhouettes
Journal Prompt:  There is no shadow without the light...

I used dylusion paint in blue, turquoise and purple. I found the images online and added music paper and masking tape to the page. I brayered some silver paint and added some stamping. I used Tim Holtz alphabet stamps for the quote.
