Your wings already exist

 Hello Happy Crafters 

Yes I am back so soon. As mentioned in my previous post, I really enjoyed the 

Moodboard challenge by #nomadicsouldiaries and #mixedmediaplace that I

created another project - Journal page. 

I was inspired by the awesome colours on the Moodboard and the elements - leaves, feathers,
water droplets.
Below is the tutorial process and the embellishments and media I used. Further you will find the
links to the Moodboard challenges.

Here we go......... Fly with me.....

Process: 

I used clothes tags that I collected and glued them to the journal pages. 

I then used a stencil to create texture on wither side.

I painted then painted the stencilling and tags with #pebeogesso - White Gesso

I coloured my pages with #infusions dye powder from #paperartsy and once this was dry, 

I used white acrylic paint to highlight the inside of the tags and the raised parts of the

stencil

While my pages were drying I raised my die cuts, chipboards and home made resins to 

add as embellishments to my pages, once I found the embellishments I wanted - 

mainly leaves, feathers and frames, I painted them with white gesso to get them ready for

colour.

I then lay out my printed ephemera and embellishments to get an idea of the layout
I wanted to achieve 

I coloured my embellishments with Blue #mixedmediadyspray from #imaginationcrafts

And I then embossed them with #nuvo #embossing powder 

I made glue dots that I coloured and added Small Mixed media stones to the Pages

with #pebeogel and polished the glue dots with #farbrikadecoru white gold powder

I added a little more colour by contrast with #Alchemywax and Metallic Bleu shabby paint

The borders of the tags were enhanced using a watercolour pencil - brown and water brush

to give the shadowed sepia effect. 

The Pictures I used were printed in Sepia and inked. The edges of the journal page were

also inked first with #ranger distress ink - Vintage photo and then black ink #memento

Everything was adhered into place and I added some cotton in between. And 

stamped these lovely quotes. i do love butterflies and added one to the creation (I always

add at least one as I love butterflies)

And Ta Da !

Here are some close ups 

I have entered this creation into the following Moodboard challenges:

NomadicSoulDiaries - This challenged my creativity as I don't usually use birds in my Projects

or creations so I was really interested to see what I could come up with, and the colours are

amazing - The elements to use - Leaves and the Quote - Well I really enjoyed this challenge.
