Art Journaling

I haven't used paints in years and the first few things I did were really just my playing with different kinds of paints.  The first image was done with PPA (Perfect Paper Adhesive) and napkins on top of a layer of paint.  Added a few stickles and a saying.  In the second and third pictures I painted the base, added a few cutouts and stamped some image.  By now I'm starting to have a little more fun.  The fourth image I painted the base blue, used a stencil and a shimmery gold paint for the flowers, added a few stamped images and turned in for the night.  The next day I started working on the back side and made the mistake of holding the heat gun too long in one spot and this image started bubbling up ... Yikes!  What better time to try out that new crackle paint I found.  :o)


I've really enjoyed playing around with paints again and learning a ton of new techniques. Here are a few more images.
