Hi There! We have a new challenge over on the Bee Crafty Stamps Facebook group with a theme of circles. Here's how my circles journal page came together.
I began by sponging some Broken China distress oxide ink down the centre of the pages.
Next, I sprayed a circle dinkable with water, laid it onto the oxide ink and then mopped up the excess water with kitchen towel.
Once this was dry, I added some Rainbow Bubbles catalyst collage paper on each side with matte medium. I left a gap on the right hand page for the next step.
I cut out some circles from a sheet of the Circles and Butterflies Catalyst Collage paper and added them to the page, including in the gap I left on the right page.
I cut around the edge of the circles on the edge of the page.
Using a posca pen and the dinkable from earlier, I added some more circles to the page.
I used some of the circle stamps from Journaling essentials set 1, along with coordinating Distress Oxide inks to add some subtle stamping to the page.
On a separate sheet of card, I stamped half of the large gerbera and 3 small ones in black versafine clair ink. I coloured them using Dina Wakley gloss drops and cut them out.
Finally, I added these and a wordy sticker sentiment to the pages using matte medium.
Here are the finished pages once more.
I used:
