Let’s begin!

Tear some strips from the circle Media papers, using both sizes. Use the Distress Collage Medium to adhere to your page, as you can use other mediums over it.

Paint a frame in a mid blue (I used a denim colour) ...

When dry add some light blue & chartreuse paint in vertical “stripes”...

Leave to dry.

Stamp your image on to tissue paper in Stazon this ink dries very quickly, it won’t smudge when you stick it to your project. Note: Stazon does dry really quickly the stamp can stick to your tissue, be careful when lifting your stamp off.

I used a stamp press as this Seahorse is a large image.

Put to one side..

Go back to your page... use a light blue paint to stencil through the Bubbles Inkable.. let it dry.

Use the collage medium to adhere your image to your background.. let it dry ( only takes a few minutes).

I added some colour to the seahorse using Inktense pencils

Add some white paint through the Regular Dots Inkable..

Stamp the seaweed element straight onto your background using Stazon Ink, it doesn’t matter if it’s not a clear image. Colour with GellyRoll moonlight #403, these pens are great on painted backgrounds!
