Another page with the Simple Stories So Rad collection from ATDML - I really love the colours. This page started off with a coating of clear gesso (still dislike that grainy texture but hey!) some homemade texture paste and then a tando cog mask. I then used my Marion Smith colour lab blue - it is just a mix of the blue - no other colours in it and it is one of my favourites. Once that had dried I also added in some distress stain over the top of cogs - silver and brown and a little blue too, and then I spritzed water onto of that to get the mixed colours over the top. I drew a couple of circles with a plate around where my photo was going, layered up the photos, papers and some of the number stickers, using foam dots for some of them.
The photo is from a visit to Bletchely Park - which is beautiful and had some really nice interactive displays that the kids could play on!
Its lovely - I really like the texture - brill photo.
ReplyDeleteSuper page - I can't believe all the colour variation you have achieved from one paint! Could i ask what the clear gesso is for/does?
