Hello
Today for my AALL & Create GDT project, I have a journal page to share. It features Marilyn and has a host of stars in the background.
Here is how this journal page came together:
The card was painted using PaperArtsy Fresco Chalk Finish paint in Lipstick.
Using the Saturday Morning stencil, I sponged on Deco Art Fluorescent paint.
Next I heat embossed some of the Scripted Stars in white and stamped Reverse stars using Versafine Claire in Chianti.
I added some gold stamping (using paint) and gold splatters.
Admittedly, the background is a 'hot mess' as this stage :)
Next I stamped and coloured the two Marilyns and fussy cut them both.
I added # 18 Poet washi tape to ground the girls, along with some words from #6 Crafty Washi tape.
I made a frame from #6 Crafty washi tape. I don't have any of the new was his yet, so I need to go shopping for some.
The finished piece, ready to stick into my art journal:
Stamps: #468 Scripted Stars, #475 Marilyn, #485 Reverse Stars
Stencil: #118 Saturday Morning
Washi Tape: #6 Crafty and #18 Poets

A list of stockists can be found here.
You'll find lots of inspiration on the
That's all for now.
Thanks for stopping by today.
