Here I loosened up a bit, let the page keep the mistakes I made (the cut out footprint, the brown paint drips) and finally "finished". I was trying to incorporate Lola's footprint using tissue paper for the Punky Scraps tissue paper challenge but my mixed media art skills are so basic I kept creating scary mottled cloud things that looked like mold growing on the page so I gave up on the tissue paper- for now.
The chicken wire mask is actually a piece of Dusty Attic chipboard I've wanted for months and have FINALLY been able to acquire through Paper Candy Crafts. I really wanted to use an SC stamp but their hexagon border stamp sold out so quickly I go whiplash. LOVE the honey comb stamp from Red Lead. I misted tattered Angels "Suede" on it and used it just on the edges. Yes I know it's super messy and deconstructed- this is on purpose I promise.
Hope you are having a great weekend. I'm off to finally see Transformers 3- hope I am not as annoyed by this one as I was by the last.

ReplyDeleteserious note: lately you have been putting too much pressure on yourself. i think you should let go more, relax, stop imposing rules, and just let 'you' flow out onto the page. that is how i feel from the last few posts.
non-serious note: Lola's expression in that last pic is priceless! she's like, 'Mom, this guy.... he's my DAD?!'
wow, this page is amazing!!! love the colors and the different patterns :) great job! xo Felicitas from Germany
