I Created with Image

JOANIE

IMAGE HERE

 

 

I took this image and coloured her with my copic's in A4 size,

and added her to my mixed media journal.

the background was coloured with layers of Dylusions paints and white gesso I then layered her on and white bubbles drawn on with white posca pen.

on the other page in my A4 Dylusions journal I made shrink sheet images with my PEACE LOVE HARMONY digi by Mystitchbackintwine Digi's

which is a freebie for you to grab this month

plz find it below.

 

 

Video HERE showing the process I take to make shrinky images large enough for large scale projects

but remember when doing words to print it backwards so when you flip to right side it looks right.

My Image I'm creating with ths month is The beautiful

SPRING ORCHID

As always I have created with her in my style and done her as a A3 mixed media journal page layout.

 

 

step 1 - printed on A3 canvas paper



 

step 2 - coated with white gesso and used a music sheet back ground stamp with black archival ink

 to give page some texture and life



 

Step 3 - added another light coat of white gesso

 

step 4 - added some colour with my caran water soluble crayons

and blended with a baby wipe

 

 

step 5 - using my brayer I added some more white gesso just to dull done colours and give it a more blended look.

 

 

step 6 - I now added colour to my image using,

water soluble crayons, water colour pencils, acrylic paint, and faber castell pencils..

 many many layers adding colour till I was happy with the final look.

I hope I have inspired you to pop by Julia's store and grab some wonderful images and create some beautiful art, cards, journal page.. what ever your imagination can come up with.

 

 The final piece was cut out and with gel medium I added it to my journal and then created lots of 3d embellishments by doubling up the layers of the orchids and the bird... I also added Nuvo glossy accents to her clothing. and finished off with some white splashes and some highlights.

 Please leave me a comment below and follow my blog to keep up to date with all my projects and creative ideas.

 

HOPE TO SEE YOU JONING OUR CHALLENGE
