Hope you have been having an inspired week
Todays post is a double Journal page about Asia
I had so much fun creating this project.
This project was inspired by the INTERNATIONAL TOURNAMENT OF ART & CRAFT... ITAC'17!
Challenge 2 - Asia #AALL&CREATE
Requirements:
Each project (Scrapbook Layout, Card, Canvas, Art Journal, Assemblage... or any other project) for this challenge, regardless of the format or techniques used, should take inspiration from the image below and should include at least one of the following elements;
· Motifs inspired by mandalas
· Geometric shapes
· Tiles - ceramic, pantiles, glazed tiles, or their designs...
· Asiatic flowers, such as cherry blossom, chrysanthemum, orchids, lotus, Frangipani, lilies, hibiscus etc..
· Calligraphy or handwriting
· Fabric, faded or dyed
· Powdered pigments
To start this project, I used patterned paper as the background. I printed Mandala's and Chinese symbols on Tissue paper (black and brown) . I then cut these out and adhered them using 13@rts gel medium. I used stamps on the background and Circle stencil with 13@rts Modeling paste.
I printed Cherry blossoms on a branch and used Dimensional glaze on the printed image. I let this dry and then fussy cut the blossoms. I fussy cut some patterned flowers and added some more flowers.
I added my Home made Patina pastes for the powder pigment elements. The instructions for my home made patina paste can be found HERE
The photos I used were taken when we went to visit the Peace Pagoda at Willen Lake in Milton Keynes. Sooo beautiful and definately has such a tranquil feel.
Thank you for stopping by and hope you enjoyed this project
Have fun and Happy Scrappin'
Loves
Candace
