Not all who wander are lost for Lindy's

Hello! Its Kerry with you today with an art journal page.  Using some of the NEW and totally AMAZING Squirts - did I mention they are AMAZING?? I have also used some flat fabio Sprays. Lets get started!

To begin, spritz a piece of watercolor paper liberally with water, then spray Summer Lovin' Sun and Tears on my pillow tangerine randomly on the card and let the colors mingle and then dry off.

Take another piece of watercolor paper and the Banff Blue squirts. Squeeze a small amount of the color onto an acrylic block and then using a lid from one of the sprays and the empty roll from inside a roll of tape 'stamp' some circles onto the paper. The squirts are super intense and you only need a small amount.

Repeat the process with the Loonie Toonie Teal squirts and then spritz the 'stamped' images with water and allow the color to bleed out, and then dry off.

3(1)

Using a stencil and some black Archival ink, add some additional marks to the background and set aside.

4(1)

Take the original piece of colored watercolor paper and add some stamping for interest.

5(1)

Take some circle punches and punch out some circles from the paper in random sizes and ink around the edges to give the circles a defined edge.

6(1)

Arrange the circles on the page as you like them and then add a focal point, I have chosen a Tim Holtz paper doll but any image can be used as a focal point on a page like this.

Before adhering the circles I have added a few circle stamps to the background.

To finish off, adhere the circles to the background, Pop a small piece of cheesecloth underneath the main focal point add a quote and some white splashes of ink. Use a fine liner to add a scribbly border and mount onto some black card, all done!!
