Sally CT - A bright and cheerful journal page

Hi There! I'm here with a step by step tutorial for this journal page in my 6x6 kraft journal today. 

 

I began by brushing white gesso across the page, leaving a small border of kraft around the edge.

Next I painted blocks of colour onto the page. I used Dylusions paints in Periwinkle, Blue Lagoon and Bubblegum pink. Once this was dry I used the Circles 1 big one inkable, and a set 5 dinkable to add some more white and some black gesso over the colours. (Sorry, I forgot to take a photo for this stage!)

I used an antistatic bag before stamping patches of the Script in Versamark ink and heat embossing in gold. 

On a scrap of black card I heat embossed the sentiment in White. 

I tore some strips of greyscale Catalyst card to add to the page. 

next I cut out the largest leaf from the transparency sheet, before adding these elements to the page with Matte Medium.

Here is the finished page again...

... and next to it's partner in the journal.
