Alison CT - Vintage doesn't mean brown.

Hi everyone, today I'm sharing a step by step guide to creating this vintage style art journal page using a Catalyst Collage Paper, stamping tissue and the Look stamp set.
To begin I cut a piece of the A5 Painted Petals and Portraits Catalyst Collage paper to fit my art journal page.  I then used a sanding block to sand around the edges.
Next I cut around the flower part to create a pocket. I didn't cut to the edge.
Then I stamped Look on to stamping tissue and carefully tore her out.

Next, I carefully tucked the bottom of the stamped image behind the flowers on the catalyst collage paper.  When I had her in position I added matte medium under the tissue and over the whole page. Add a little spritzed water to encourage the edges of the tissue to dissappear in to the background. Leave this to fully dry.
Then, I added a white texture paste through the text part of the coffee stains text inkable. Leave to dry.
After it was dry, I blended victorian velvet distress ink through the Distressed Diamonds inkable. 
Next, I used a black pen to edge the piece and glued it to my page in my journal using pva glue.
Finally, I lightly sanded the Wordy Stickers from the 3B sheet, before cutting them down and adding them to the page.
Here's another look at the finished piece. 
Products used:

Thank you for taking a look.
