I am currently working on journal pages in Juliet’s Calendar journal.
The left page is done with Cedar Canyon rubbing plates, and Shiva Paintstiks.

I really enjoyed creating this page, it came together rather easily.
The left page is simply layers of acrylic paints; the right background is, once again, painted used dryer sheets.
These sheets come in many varieties, giving lots of variations for altering.
Over the word Natural is a piece of wall repair tape. It is sticky back and the color can be changed simply by smooshing with a stamp pad. Gauze ribbon covers ‘Balance’.

This background is made by ironing crumpled wax paper over the pages, and then smooshing the page with three colours of Distress Inks. I still love this technique!
The vine is stencilled using Distress Ink in Chipped Sapphire.
All diecuts and the image outlined with markers.

Here is another page in my RR Calendar Journal. A variety of napkins, some journalling – added to a background of painted stamps and distress ink pads.
