It's PLAY TIME.....

I was never so happy to hear those words in my head....
It has been a VERY BUSY month and I actually hadn't created
anything in ALMOST TWO WEEKS....
That'll make one go into withdrawal right there!!

So, I decided to pull out some of the PRIMARY ELEMENTS
I had recently acquired and PLAY.

BUT FIRST.....
I needed to create paint swatches,
mixing Primary Elements with Clear Glaze Medium,
so I could familiarize
myself with the colors....
Some I knew...others....not so much! 

Now, when the each paint swatch was complete....
I began brushing the excess into my art journal.

Can I just tell you....
I LOVE how the mixture applied
sooo nicely to my book page
and how well it got along with the
previously applied colors.

Colors....that should have muddied when applied over another
color....but instead created a BEAUTIFUL THIRD color.....
O the BEAUTY OF THIS PRODUCT!! 

 
When I had my pages saturated with color....
I dabbed on a bit of Gesso with bubble wrap
and added some
Viva Colour ~ Gold Precious Metal Effect Paint.

Then using a bunch of 'Tovers I had brought with me
I let my creativity wander.

I painted puzzle pieces...
Mini Pearl Daisies...
and Butterflies cut for
the Vintage Wings and Things Collage Sheet.

 

....along with any other embellie I could get my hands on.

I chose a quote....
"Every path hath a puddle"
to finish out my page....

AHHHHH....now that was a GOOOD MORNING!
