Artful August Challenge with Rachel Greig ~ Tissue

 Hi!
I got back to my Art Journal.
I'm working through the Artful August Challenge by
Rachel Greig.  The word today is Tissue.
I had one roll of Tim Holtz tissue paper, from back
 in the day, but that is all I needed was a piece.

The background is created with the large circles stencil by Darkroom Door
 and Distress Spray Stain/Bundled Sage by Ranger.  The tissue paper is randomly
placed over a section of the stenciled background using collage paste by Ranger.
The quote stamp is called Artist by Darkroom Door.  Describes the Hyde girls
 perfectly.  

I randomly stamped using images from the Number Medley set, 
Global Postmarks and Faded Circles by Darkroom Door.  Stickers, Paper
 Dolls by TH and postage stamps.
The background is splattered with acrylic paint. All adhesive
used is by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.
The hashtag is #rachelgreigartfulaugustchallenge.  You can see
some really cool art by following this #.

Thanks for stopping by!

Artful August Challenge with Rachel Greig ~

Hi!
This is the third year for Artful August Challenge with
Rachel Greig.  I'm so happy to announce I got to
create 4 art journal pages using the prompts that Rachel
suggested.

The four I'm going to show are 26 - 29.   So fun, all mixed media with
red rubber stamps!!!

You can find individual photos here on my instagram
 account crafty_mercer.
I used Distress Stain Spray, Distress Oxide ink and Archival inks
to create the background or starting point.  Stencils, stamps, 
collage papers, ephemera, texture paste, embossing 
powder just to name the many things that were used.  I used
close to 12 stamp sets and 8 stencils. 
My goal is to finish all the prompts even it takes longer than a
month!

Thanks for stopping by.
