A digital scrapbook page

This was the first Christmas without my Nan, and so I created this page of her with her parents and siblings in her honour.

Advent journal

We are currently in Advent. For a while, I have been wondering what to do with the backgrounds I created using my Gelli Plate. Then I had the idea of making an Advent Journal. It's quite a grungy journal, using lots of bits and pieces that I had stashed away, but marking the period of waiting before Christmas day and the birth of Jesus.

Over the next 10 days I will post one page each day. I hope you like them.

Two hearts

I created the background for this piece with my Gelli Plate. I then added some bits of old printed paper, some stamping, some wasi tape and highlighted the hearts with charcoal. As the last stage I added some swirls of dimensional paint. Done!

Laugh out loud

I wanted to create a cheerful digital piece and ended up using element from lots of different kits. That is why the credits for this piece are so long. Lol!

Diptych

To start I covered the wood with gesso, followed by acrylic paint.I then applied more paint through stencils,  moving the stencil slightly for the second layer. For the back, I then stamped over the stencil pattern. On the front I added the embellishments.
