Hi everyone!

Seems like I'm still on the 'HOPE' feeling with my page today. HOPING (no pun intended) things lighten up soon!

Today's page (the colours anyway) was inspired by my grandson, Justin. I'd recently made an altered file folder for his sister, Amelia, and Justin said he'd like one also. I asked him what colours he wanted and he replied 'gray, blues and light purple'. That's where my background colours came from today!

Only once the background was done did I decide to slap an image on it, a quote and call it done LOL.

Art Journal Page - Blind 6 Challenge - Imagination

Hi everyone!

Today's journal page was done in my Dylusions Creative Journal and prompted by the 'blind 6' challenge. This is where I 'blindly' chose 6 different mediums to use on my page. They were the only products I could use except for gesso, texture paste, matte medium, etc, as well as stencils and stamps - you can also use any product black or white.

So today I blindly chose tissue wrap * lemon acrylic paint * yellow magicals powder * purple/blue spray * mermaid lagoon distress oxide * purple alcohol ink - what a mixture!!!! This was gonna be hard!

As I started putting down the products the page, and the colours, were starting to grow on me and I started having a bit of fun with it. I'm pretty happy with how the page ended up!
