Little Boy Blue

On day 2 this week over on the paper artsy blog Sue Carrington did a lovely canvas with loads of very interesting layers. you can pop over and see it here.

Not a very long post today as I had a little accident yesterday and ended up in A&E so having to rest my sprained wrist as much as possible!! I followed along more or less what Sue did so you can follow the instructions from Sue...I must say this was very quick and enjoyable piece to do...

Do not go...

I started this page ages ago..believe or not it started off pale green after adding torn pieces of old book pages..and then I kinda got carried away. It has layers of Guacamole,butternut,autumn fire and a teensy bit of zesty zing.

 

 I stamped and stenciled in between the layers with olive green archival and then stenciled the tree using Grunge paste I had coloured with stone fresco. I then painted over the trees with french roast went around the edges with a white pen and stamped some Jofy grassy things from her no10 plate in olive archival..and edged the pages in the same colour.
Lastly I stamped the quote by Ralph Waldo Emmerson on strips of card and stuck them on the page. I couldn't get a good piccie of this page..the photo doesn't show the colours as they really are..

thanks for stopping by....
