I used some dylusions paints, in a fab turquoise and grey , scraping on with an old plastic card...then added lots of stencilled colour. So here are my painty pages:
When the paint background was dry I added stencilled circles,using paint and a dylusions stencil..then added some large circles using an old lid. When dry.... and yes I had to be patient....I added some stencilled circles in pen, some fab black leaves from dylusions ...I am hooked on these as I Love the vibrant colours against the black!
I added some doodled White detail too.
finally I added some movers and shapers butterflies coloured with the summer DI, picked raspberry so not my colour and yet....love it against the paint.., I stippled over some DI in salty sea, using a baby wipe.. I also added a Tim dress form inked and covered with walnut stain DI and some wings ..cannot help myself!
still totally a vintage and grunge girl and yet i find myself loving the vibrant colours some how...
