Continuing the Art Journal Challenge - Day 2

 If you have been following my blog you will have seen that recently I have been doing lots of mixed media.

This week I joined the Art Journal Challenge on Facebook - Create your First Art Journal in only 5 days. Well it's not my first Art Journal but it is certainly the first one that I have made like this in 5 days.
I have spent a lot of time in my craft room!

In the previous post I showed my first completed makes - you see one of them on the right of this picture.
The other two pages are the beginnings of two more pages and was how we finished Day 2.


This is how the middle page turned out - it started with a piece of Designer Paper covered totally with washi tape. 
The edges were distressed with black soot and I then added the strip of patterned paper (from my stash), the lady (from Extraordinary Things to Cut Out and Collage by Maria Rivans) and the sentiment (Dylusions)


The second page involved torn script, a diecut and distress all on a black card 5 by 7 inches.


To this I added the Visible Image stamp and sentiment, stamped in Archival ink.  
The insect was then painted with distress - I used gathered twigs and broken china. Finally I used the broken china to stamp the raindrops (Designs by Ryn).

I will link this to Lost Coast Portal To Creativity Challenge #105


Happy Crafting!
