Home Comforts

Hi Everyone! Today I have another page build up for Birgit Koopsen's 31 Products Challenge on Instagram.

Day 21 - Collaged Under-Papers


Day 22 - DecoArt Sand Texture Paste scraped through a stencil


Day 23 - DecoArt Traditions Quinacridone Gold Acrylic Paint, a thin wash applied all over


Day 24 - Swiped an embossing ink pad over the texture, then used Stampendous Frantage Shabby White EP to emboss


Day 25 - Pebeo Prisme Fantasy Paint, Turquoise and English Red. As these paints are rather old, there wasn't the usual effect of the colours mingling and creating cells sadly


Day 26 - Highlighted the diamonds with a black Stabilo Aquarellable all surface pencil, and used a wet paintbrush to activate. Then I finished with a book text quote.


As home is always a comfort, I'm entering my page in Linda's Creature Comforts Challenge at Art Journal Journey.


Thanks so much for visiting. Wishing you all a very happy Sunday.

  1. That's a nice technique to create some pages. I always get a little trepidation before covering something up, but it is worth it based on these pages. Beautiful work Alison. Hugs-Erika
