52 Pages wk 3

Here is my page.

Background coloured with neocolors, then words, a photo and 'ticks' glued on.

Next add shading with pencil and oil pastels.



Add watercolours over the pastels ( they will act as a resist)

Burn the photo with a heat gun till it bubbles.

Rub gold all around the edge.



Back...neocolors, oil pastels, watercolours and gold...plus journalling. This gold is very shiny, can't possibly get a good photo of it.



Add a paper rosette, reminding me to love ME!

Sorry for weird angle, it was the only way to show the gold.
