Here is a sweet and quick journal page, muted tones, and quite vintage looking I think. Like an illustration you might find in an old childrens book.
I started with a background of drippy Fibralo pens.
I covered some tissue paper with text stamps from Sara Naumann.
I stamped a great little tree from Urban Snapshots, and added more washes of fibralo over the tree. Then I added the red splats using archival ink and the splat stamp from HPXT01
The border is from EDY05 and coloured delicately with fibralo pens. the quote is from Winne the Pooh. The little girl and the balloon are hand drawn and coloured with fibralo pens.
Finished page..
The pens are available from PaperArtsy HERE...

ReplyDeleteOh, Darcy, this really does remind me of books I had as a child! I love it! I especially love the text effect, subtly appearing from the washy colours. Gorgeous! Julie Ann xxx
