This week Maria has chosen Mixed Media technique. I love this type of stamping -- be forewarned, it is really messy. However, it is so relaxing to just stamp - paint - layer, whatever strikes your fancy.
I did another page in my journal, and I am also entering this in to the Mixed Media Challenge; light blue, turquoise and a neutral. I will be honest, I worked on this one page for about 2 hours! [really??] - I just wasn't that happy with it so I kept adding layers. I used Gesso, paint, ink, paper, gems, washi tape - HA! you name it I think I used it on this page! I had fun -- that is the most important part :)
A little close up:
Have you tried this technique? I highly recommend it! Really, it is fun~ Maria has a video link on directions to start and then you can go from there. I hope you join in -- Hope to see you at Just Us Girls Technique Challenge.

Hi, I really like (love) the work you did on this project. I like all the art you create. I particularly like mixed media. I'm just getting started and am in the midst of gathering supplies. I have watched a LOT of videos of a lot of different artists. What I would find helpful, if you please, is if you would list what supplies you used. You would help a lot of people who are new to paper art. Once again, I love your work. I really like the colors you chose. Great work. Have fun creating.
Wow Vicki! What a fabulous journal page! I love all the details and layers! Thanks so much for joining along with A Mixed Media Color Challenge!
