Happy first day of Fall! I'm welcoming my favorite season with this 2 page spread in my art journal done with Ranger Dyan Reaveley's Dylusions Paints from FotoBella.com.
Before spraying my pages with some water, I placed some wax paper behind them to protect the other pages. Then I used my fingers to apply Squeezed Orange, Funky Fuchsia, and Crushed Grape to the page on the right, working quickly and spraying some more, before turning the page on the left down over the paints to reveal this background.
Once dry, I used the Ranger Dylusions Diamond in the Rough Stencil in random places with my Mini Ink Blending Tool to apply Dirty Martini, Pomegranate Seed, Melted Chocolate, Pure Sunshine, and Tangerine Dream paints, using the same colors for the leaves.
The leaves were done with one of my oldest stencils, but any one would do, including the Bo Bunny Falling Leaves Stickable Stencil or the Dylusions Fronds of Foliage Stencil.
To create leaves flying around, I made some with crisp paint lines, while leaving others with just a little bit of paint, fading the colors into the background with my Mini Blending Tool. Then I stamped some texture onto them with the Bo Bunny Rough It Up Stamp.
SO much fun with these Dylusions Paints from FotoBella.com! Thanks for looking!
