Monochromatic Fun


I decided to use the color green for my monochromatic fun page.  Some of the papers are gelli plate prints that I made when teaching a demo at Samish Paint Out.  I found a green postcard and added a few scraps from my leftovers box.  The definition for monochromatic art was added to this page at the bottom.

Word Clippings

The prompt this week was word clippings.  I clipped the words "Anything Goes" from a choir program page.  Then added things that could move or go.  Including travel vehicles and birds and engines.

Pockets and Pouches

My pockets were from some greeting cards I had made a long time ago.  I inserted tags in the pockets and used rub-ons to finish the page.

Repetition

The prompt this week was repetition.  I used a flower stencil on the background,  Stamped the tipsy image on tea bag papers which were glued to the page, then used gesso around the stamped images, ending with stamping the again several times.

Numbers

The prompt for this week was numbers.  I had several stamps with numbers so decided to use them.  Deli paper accepts stamped images really well, so I stamped on it and attached it to the page.  Also added a chipboard number 5, stickers and some decorative tapes.

Tags and Hidden Places

The hidden places cover some photos that are special to me.  The round silver tags is the inner seal from a can of nuts.  I embossed it and taped it over the photo.  The other hidden place is covered with a coffee cup holder.

Inky is as inky does

This page was created with inks.  I used Liquitex inks on the background, (red, yellow and blue), then added stamped images with pigment and dye inks..  Next I stamped a flower on some blue tissue and glued it to the page.  Stamped the sun on a torn recipe card.  The yellow ink was added to the sun and used to color in the white areas on the page.  Writing was a white poster pen.
