Alison CT - Beautiful

Hi everyone,  today I'm sharing an art journal page created using the A5 Catalyst Collage papers with some of the Transparency Prints. 

I began by painting my page with Kuretake Gansai Tambi granulating watercolours. I left this to dry.

Whilst waiting I cut out the image from the Catalyst Collage paper that I wanted to use.

When the background was dry, I added the alternate circles inkable using spiced marmalade and mustard seed distress oxide and some of the splats inkable using mermaid lagoon distress oxide. I wanted to add colours from her hair to the page.

Next, I chose the transparencies I wanted to use and cut them out.

I used matte medium to attach the intertwined circles strips to either side of the page.

Then I added the face.

I added the numbers and the circles to the centre of the largest five flowers.

Next I used matte medium to glue the three words to white card. I did this because they got lost in the background on their own. I cut them out.

Finally I glued the words to the page.
