Hi everybody,
hope you are not all worn out from holiday preparations!
I made these journal pages for the light/shadow theme at Art Journal Journey last week. It was rather difficult to take the photos today, I had to use flash as it was so dark all the time.
The background was my brush-wipe paper, to which I added some sprays, gold ink and lots of stamping and stenciling, and pastels to highten the colours.I used my stencils again for the figures, and used a white pen to outline the figures and do the text. 'Live' is a sizzx die-cut which I used here as a template, and wish has been die-cut and glued on. The quote is from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, spoken by Dumbledore in the film version.
Today I had to dodge the rain to take my walk, but yesterday there was some blue sky here and there:
Have a great day, take care, and thanks a lot for coming by!
Love your journal pages, Val. the colours are wonderful, and I love that quote. The photos are great, as always! Hugs, Sarah
