* Start Doing What You Love

 

Hello

I love this little girl. She's a collage image by Art by Marlene.

I made a postcard for my journal. The background started as a stamped stencil image. I then added crackle texture paste through a heart stencil and when dry used Oxide re-inkers to drip colour from top to bottom of the page. I added some tone on tone texture stamping and some black stamping around the edges. Gold wax was added to the hearts and they were outlined with gold Posca pen and Charcoal watercolour pencil. Gold acrylic paint was added around the edges of the page. Washi tape acts as grounding for the collage image.

I love the effect of crackle paste ...
