'Chase the Sun' with Lisa Amiet

Hello all!

It's Lisa here today to share my latest art journal page

for this month's 'Art Foamies' challenge!

'Chase the Sun'

Now before I tell you how this page came about,

I have to tell you that I'm not a huge fan of this page, 

everything went a bit pear shaped lol.

I have used my 'Dylusions Creative Journal - Large' and I have started with a

coat of 'Paper Artsy Fresco Finish - Pumpkin Soup' paint. 

I have then added another coat, but while it was still wet, 

I used a scrunched up piece of paper to remove some of the paint. 

I have then used my '6x6 Dreamscapes Triangle Stencil' from 7 Dots Studio, 

to lightly ink through with a 'Blending Tool' and 'Distress Ink - Peeled Paint'.

Next is where things changed a bit. I have used my 

'13 Arts Rainbow Color' in Navy Blue,

I have added some water and let the colour flow over my page. 

Once dried I changed it again. I just wasn't feeling it. 

I have used my 'Red Tin Roof Doily #4 Large' stencil, 

and white gesso to sponge through the stencil. 

 

I have then added some doodles to my doilies. 

I have then added a leaf sticker from the 

'Pinkfresh - Escape the Ordinary Chipboard Stickers'.

I have then stamped out some flowers,

 using my 'Art Foamies Art by Marlene Poppy - Small',

and 'Distress Inks' in 'Rusty Hinge' and 'Peeled Paint'. 

I have added a word sticker from 'Pinkfresh Boys Fort Element Stickers'.

I have then used my 'Art Foamies Balzer Leaf Vine Small' and 

'Distress Inks' in 'Mowed Lawn', 'Spiced Marmalade' and 'Faded Jeans'

I have cut them all out and layered them down the left side of my page. 

I have then used more of the chipboard stickers

 from the 'Pinkfresh Escape the Ordinary' collection, 

and a 'Pinkfresh Escape the Ordinary Fabric Diecut' arrow layered over my page. 

I have then used my 'Art by Marlene Storms Don't Last' stamps to stamp in 

'Distress Ink Faded Jeans'. I have cut it out and added it to my page. 

I really love the colour scheme of this page, 

but it didn't turn out quite like I had planned, but that's half the fun!

I hope that you get a chance to have an experiment today,

and that this inspires you.

Until next time!

Lisa
