Welcome to July everyone! I'm here today, to share my art journal calendar pages for the coming month.
I used my DecoArt Traditions acrylic paints for the first time in a while, a couple of blues and greens, to create a layered and stencilled background. Then I die-cut some tickets from some contrasting gelli-prints. I used various PaperArtsy stamps for my title, and to frame the pages, and I finished with some white highlights and splatters.
I'm linking my page to the new 'Art For Art's Sake' Challenge by Chris on Art Journal Journey.

ReplyDeleteLike Chris, you put my calendar pages to shame. I adore how you used the gelli prints to create those tickets. Very ingenious and most impressive. What a great first entry for Chris's theme this month at Art Journal Journey.
