Look for the magic

Scrappers Delights returned last month with the progressive challenge in the Scrappers Delights Facebook group. Today we start a new challenge for March and you will receive the new freebie if you participated in February. You can also participate on the new Challenge Blog.

I decided that my art journal needed some love and this was the right image to head there with. I created a page for my disc bound journal out of Canson XL Watercolor paper. I smooshed some Memento Tuxedo black ink onto my glass mat and sprayed it with water. I masked off the side of the page with the hole in it and then pulled it through the black ink. I did multiple passes and in various directions to get the visual texture I was after. Once it was dry, I applied the star through a stencil using Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink. I love how the oxide ink's chalky quality makes it sit on top of the background.

I printed the digi out on Daler-Rowney Drawing paper and colored her with my Prismacolor colored pencils. I cut her out on my Silhouette machine and also cut a second shape out of white cardstock and then glued the colored image onto the white cardstock shape. I also cut a pair of wings out of silver metallic cardstock. Because I had cut her out on my Silhouette, I was able to create the wings to be the perfect size for her in Silhouette Studio. I glued the wings to her back.

I completed the page by gluing her in the star and stamping the sentiment with Versafine Onyx black ink. I defined the edge of the star with a white gel pen.

Remember to head over to the Scrappers Delights Facebook group and join in there.
