Now Summer is in Flower Art Journal Spread

     Hello and hope you're doing well! I've been busy with this art journal spread, which took longer to make than I wanted, but was well worth it! 



     The colors come from the July Color Challenge at Lindy's Gang



     I started by stamping some script onto my pages, and applying a light coat of white gesso. Then I used a stencil (TCW) with Lindy's (Clearly Clear) Embossing Powder to get the lattice design, and added water and Lindy's Magicals (Yodeling Yellow and Hi Maintenance Magenta).



     The flower petals were stamped onto white tissue paper with Ranger (Jet Black) Archival Ink, and adhered with Prima 3D Matte Gel. Then I painted them with Lindy's Magicals (Polka Purple, Yodeling Yellow, and Hi Maintenance Magenta). 



     Masking tape was used to make the sun rays with a couple of coats of Lindy's Magical (Yodeling Yellow). 



     Then I embossed the rays with zigzags from the Bo Bunny (Stitches) Stamp using Lindy's (Midnight Violet) Embossing Powder.



     The same EP was also used under the journaling strips through pieces of dry wall tape. 



     Thanks so much for stopping by, and take care!
