A Little Hope Journal Spread

 

Hi There! I've moved away from pastel colours this week and I have a journal page for you. 

I began by smooshing Mustard Seed Distress Oxide onto a double page in my 5x5 notebook. 

When this was dry, I drew a rough circle in Salty Ocean Distress crayon on the right hand page. I brushed over this with a damp brush to blend it a little. 

Using Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink, I added some dots using a dinkable. 

I used the same colours of ink to add stamping using Journal Art Elements 3, randomly around the page. 

Next I used the 4" circle easy frame to add a pink circle using a paint marker....

and also a white circle slightly offset.

On a small piece of vellum/ parchment paper, I stamped and heat embossed the Doodle Art Butterfly in white, and cut it out. 

Then I splattered the page using distress Spritz in Picked Raspberry. 

I added the butterfly to the page using matte medium.

I felt it still needed a few white and pink pen dots here and there, so I added some in. 

Finally, I added a wordy sticker sentiment. 

Here are the finished pages once more.
