Forever

Hi everyone.

I am sharing a mixed media album which I created for 13arts for February.

Once I had measured and cut all of my patterned paper, I prepared all of the papers by first 

adding a layer of clear gesso and then stenciling here and there with modeling paste.

I then added stamping around the edges and then applied a mixture of gel medium and 

Tiger Eye Color Glow around the edges with a spatula.

Once that was dry, I added Old Gold Glitter Ink on the pages with a spatula.

I allowed the ink to dry and then adding black gesso around the edges to 

give them definition.

Adding the little Printer's Tray on the front of the album was a really fun part 

of the process.  This was a little of box which originally had wooden embellishments in.

I painted it with black gesso, added Color Glow and then, once all the embellishments 

were added, I added white gesso.

I also added green splashes of colour throughout the album by adding green and black ink 

together to get the exact green that I was looking for to match the papers from the collection.

I will leave you with some of the pages from the album ...

I hope that you like this album.

Until next time!

💚
