I used the same Fresco paints to create a brayered background
I continued to layer the paints until I was happy! I'm always scared of over doing it.... but I think I got it right!
Next I added infusions - today I chose Are You Cerise, Royal Blood and a touch of Black Night. I really can't tell you just how wonderful these powders are - there are so many ways to use them!
For this background I decided to stencil on grunge paste and I did this in 2 ways.
Firstly, I coloured grunge paste with Pixie Dust and stencilled this on.
The second stencil I wanted to keep bolder and so kept the original colour of grunge paste.
Next I stamped lots of Emma Godfrey stamps in Watering Can and Black Archival. I then used the small French Script stamp and stamped this in White Staz On.
Not content with leaving it there, I then used Portfolio pastels to highlight some areas.
I also used a white gel pen and a pink Pitt pen to add more scribbling!
And here is the finished article.
It looks very different from the background I showed on Monday and yet I used the same base colours. Love it though!
I feel like this might be the last creation for a little while - but if I get the chance to play I will!
Thanks for looking.....
