To begin, I created a background using several of the circle inkables and d'inkables with distress oxides. After using each stencil I spritzed it with water and pressed it on to the page. See below for products used.
Next, I added one of the mandala stamps from set 1. I wasn't worried if it didn't stamp accurately as it is just another layer to the background.
Using a wet paintbrush, I applied water around the Dream image and carefully tore her out.
I then applied matte medium to the reverse of the dream image, not directly to my page, as the inks used are not waterproof. I carefully added dream to the page using more matte medium to ensure she stuck.
I coloured her eyes and lips using distress watercolour pencils in mermaid lagoon and worn lipstick.
On a piece of full colour catalyst card, from set 3, I stampedthe large and small fliwer from Journaling Essentials 5 using versafine clair nocturne ink. I then cut them out. In hindsight I should have embossed them with white, to make them stand out more.
I used matte medium to glue the flowers around the hair on the left of the page.
Finally I stamped two of the small words sentiments, cut them out and edged with black pen, then glued them to the page.
