Take a Word 5

Home is the theme this week and I decided to create a journal page.

I started by creating a digital piece using elements from Tangie Baxter's & Roben-Marie Smith's Art Stomp kit (at SBG). I then printed it onto labels and stuck some of the labels onto my journal page. I used water-soluble oil pastels and pencils to fill the gaps and make a coherent whole.

What a cool idea to use labels. This turned out great! (And, oh no, this reminded me that I am kinda behind on my sketchbook!)

Jackie, I love your rich journal pages. The only thing that could improve them would be to see them in person because I know that a flat photo doesn't do justice to the textures and depth of colours. This is a truly beautiful artpiece. Stunning.
