Everything Circles - Days 15 & 16

Hi Everyone. Hope you're all having a good week.

We're over halfway through the April Everything Circles Instagram Challenge now, and here are my latest pages.

Day 15 - I printed some circles with a small round gel plate, then some colourful stencilling. Then I drew circles with my black Bombay ink dropper, lifting my journal to create drips. I filled in the background around the circles with orange acrylic, added dots of black ink with my finger, drew white circles inside them, then added a quote sticker on a piece of painted masking tape. Finished with white paint splashes.


Day 16 - A background of teabags, Seaglass fresco acrylic applied with a palette knife, then the fun part...dried paint from my paint pots that I've saved for ages, glued in a circle and randomly dotted on the page. I'm linking this page to Wendy's Having Fun theme at Art Journal Journey, because it really made me smile.


Thanks for dropping by my blog,

Alison xox

    Those dried paint top circle is super cool and how clever to use them! I was just pulling some dried paint bits off some paint today and mine just went into the trash. That page makes me happy too! And I like the other page too! Hugs-Erika

    Your mixed media pages are awesome! Especially the idea to use these dried paint from your paint pots and add them in a circle on your page!
    Happy Easter! Rike x
