Where do I begin?! I got a hold of a few new products and I went for it! I used scraps of the typewriter embossed paper, old clock design paper and added texture all around them. I went in with spray stains and black paint for the background base. I rubbed foundry wax on the letters and splattered it around. I knew I wanted the clock die cut to be my focal point so I added stencil butter starting there. I used an empty roll of tape to stamp circles and help bring out the clocks that are kind of hidden in the background this point. I added stenciling in the empty spaces and sprayed a little mica on the letters. This journal page REALLY made my creative soul sing!!!

fabulous mixed media work. I like the rich colors-browns and greens and then the black to pull them together, looks like a lot of fun to make

Jess, this is so awesome!!!! I love it!! Is the base paper heavy weight? I want to learn how to do this.

Thanks!! The base is a mixed media heavy cardstock which feels like an 80lb cardstock. I forgot to include the journal I work with but I'll post it along the other supplies. I did prime my paper with both Mod Podge and the Transparent Texture Paste b/c I wanted to see the difference between the two. Not much difference except that I would rather save my transparent paste for other projects instead of using it for priming. I knew I was going to go heavy on the liquids but it's actually good practice to prime no matter what. I think you can use anything that will seal your paper to prime it for MM. I saw Jessica use Glossy Accents once to prime her paper for alcohol inks!
