Drippage n Spots

Another gorgeous week of sunshine and so, not so much crafting from me. I am an outdoor/fair weather girl and don't want to waste the beautiful summer.

However, Kates journal page project was calling to me and I loved the effect of the dots upon the random colours.
I think that I must be in a very defiant mood today, a bit  "come on world, chuck what you like at me" kinda day because of the clashing colours that I chose. London Bus, Smoked Paprika and Orchid.
I didn't gesso first because I didn't read all of Kates instructions this morning but will try it again and compare the difference.
I don't have any of the sequin waste so used a stencil for my dots.
My composition should have been the other way up but, because of the way that the image was facing I turned it round.
This image is my very favourite LP stamp.
Pleased with the results and going to play more on this theme. Thanks Kate, love your work.

  5. You may think these colours clash - I just think they are F.A.B.U.L.O.U.S!! A perfect depiction of the weather we've been having. We have lovely sun today but for me - happily- a little bit fresher! Chrisx ps I tried this with and without gesso and preferred with!

  6. Fabulous drippage, pink and orange go very well together, usually they are teamed with lime green to make a split complementary scheme. Using red instead does appear to add drama, but because all your 3 colors are warm colours they still work together.

    It works, and shows you have a natural eye for colour combinations.

  7. I think your color choice is bold and fabulous. The drips in the different directions almost create a pattern. I love that stamp...on my wish list now. Beautiful page!
