Alpha Challenge J

Here's my entry for The Craft Barn Alpha Challenge letter J and also for Paper Artsy inspired by Alison Bomber. The background starts off with splats of drawing gum, which I rubbed off at the end, glued down lace scraps and bits of Grunge Paste here and there and through mini ledger stencil and then over this snowflake fresco and then more Fresco paints in Hey Pesto, space cadet, Antarctic and lake wanaka, using Alison's technique of making them into sprays, stencil over the top and distress inks and brown stazon. I've rubbed over silver gilding wax over the pages before adding my embellishments.

I used Paper Artsy Stamps Squiggly Ink Love & Kisses 2 and Ink and the Dog Dolls 1

I can see me collecting the rest of the dolls collection, quirky, fun and versatile.
I've also used Alison's idea of tags. By making 3 and glued lace scraps and some more grunge paste and sprayed same as pages. The words I printed out on a Brother label maker. Love that tool now
I've stamped my images using Distress markers.
Made tissue paper buttons onto round tags.
I did have an accident, when removing the masking tape it took the definition with it. So have written it in.
That's the quick run down. I've include photos showing background before tags and images stuck on and also my little Oscar who returned home last night has been helping too. Lol
You can still join in with the Alpha challenge and Paper artsy blog weekly inspired by their designers.
