I won’t describe the challenges as this is a ‘pay for’ class but am still loving it, even if half the time I ignore the rules and do it my own way…

Colourme positive week 26
This week’s quote was from Oprah and the challenge was to write down something you’re grateful for today. This is a very different page for me, inspired by ATC swap partner Ying-Ya Shey. Collage materials received as part of a swap, Distress paint & ink, bronze paint that Lynne Walker gave me 🙂

This week’s quote was about courage, and the challenge was to incororate a boat. I used a Stampotique stamp, collage, Dylusions and Dina Wakley paints.

Making collages
I’m entering the 18th International Collage Exhibition and Exchange – I’ve entered ICE before and recommend it. Dale Copeland does an amazing job of all the organisation and the work you get back is fabulous. I started making collages a few days ago and finished a few today; at least, I think they are finished — we’ll see! It’s a funny thing, I’m not Christian but there’s always some religious iconography sneaks into my collages, and this time I seem to have a thing for circles and egg shapes. It’s not a planned theme – I grab papers, scissors and glue and then put my brain in quiet mode while I create.

Gelli play – making painted paper
I’ve been playing with my Gelli Plate, a bunch of Stencil Girl stencils and some Dylusions paint to make painted paper. I like the Dylusions paint for gelli printing – it gives good coverage and doesn’t dry too quickly, even in the hot weather. Oddly enough, it dries fast in my art jounal. These painted papers have at least 2 layers, some have 4 layers, of paint. The prints will be cut up for card making or kept for in my art journal, collage projects, etc.
