Steampunk Serengeti Blog Hop 2021 Post #21 August 26

   Once again Leigh is leading a hop...

LeighSBDesigns Steampunk Serengeti Blog Hop!
August 6 - 31, 2021



For more details hop over to Leigh's page

As you know I have been adding pages to my junk journal using alcohol ink backgrounds.


I decided to add another page because I remembered this elephant that has been lying around my craft room. I also came across a background that I had made using alcohol ink and gesso.
Most of the pages are made with a piece of upcycled cardboard - this time I used a piece from a Corona beer carrier cut to 7 by 5 inches.
On the back I glued a piece of the kraft patterned paper.


I placed the background on the opposite side.
The elephant I had cut with my Cricut and layered 5 pieces to make a 'chipboard' - and I added the googly eye.


On top of the background I added the cut file from Steampunk Serengeti Collage, cut in brown.
I distressed the edges with vintage photo Distress Ink.



I doodled on the elephant with a Micron pen.



I will link this to Leigh's Hop

Happy Crafting!
