Another journal page I couldn't resist trying!! I chose to create this in my black Mixed Media Journal on the watercolour paper.
The background started with crinkled patterned tissue paper (Dina Wakley) and then applied light gesso in the centre and heavy gesso around the edges. I stamped into the heavy gesso with a swirly script stamp (Dina Wakley) to add even more texture.
Then some paint dripping with the pink and yellow. The colour on the edge was diluted with a satin glazing liquid to make it kind of opaque and glossy and then some of the colour was rubbed off. Really fun techniques. Then some more stamping with black ink and adding the hearts and words.
