Michelle over at GPP Street Team has a new challenge this month ~ Scrape. The idea is to paint journal pages with several different colours using a credit card or splodger, brushes are not allowed. I cut a heart stencil from grey board, well 3 actually and then scraped paint through those too. I did my left had page first but didn't like the red I had used, too brown so I did it again using a bright red acrylic paint. It is still darker than the right hand page but it's ok. I think we will be adding to these pages later, if not I will journal about how my heart loves art! I used my A4 Moleskine for this double page spread and then did another double page,same technique in my smaller A5 Moleskine but this time I scraped white Gesso through sequin waste (punchinella) and a plastic spaghetti measure from Asda!
Love these pages Pat the colours are so vibrant!! The cards on the previous post are excellent love them both Chanelle xx
ReplyDeleteso inventive love the red hearts x sue x
ReplyDeleteGreat texture to the page. I did a bit of scraping today very similar to your white corners in one of our round robin journals! Love the bright colours. x C
ReplyDeleteThese look awesome Pat, love the colours. xx
ReplyDeletePat, bravo for trying scraping, and stencils too! We will discuss *finishing* next month, so hold on! Thanks for sharing with the team.
ReplyDeleteFAB pages Pat. I'm sat here thinking Asda plastic spaghetti measure & then the penny dropped! Oh girl, what a FAB idea!! Lovely hearts too. Can't wait for next month now!

Great pages! I like the dimension of the two toned hearts on the left and the gesso punchinella---AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteGreat pages! i love the use of the stencils- always fun. But...what's a "splodger"?
ReplyDeleteLovely art :-) I love to use a splodger too although mine is usually an old i-tunes card or a phone top-up card!
ReplyDeleteYour pages are fabulous Pat, love the vibrant colours, the 1st one is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteHope you are keeping well seems ages since we saw you.
Love Lynne xx
Great pages Pat, wonderful idea using the spaghetti measure - I'm always on the lookout for unusual stuff to use :-) Love the gesso on the end one

Oops that was meant to be the 2nd one hehe

These are both lovely. Like Anne, I really like how the white gesso pops off the page in the 2nd one.
ReplyDeleteLove your pages. I am also looking forward to finishing the page.
ReplyDeleteWow cool scraping. I wish I would've done some in my moleskin too now. Happy creations from germany, tj
