Santa Claus brought me 2 Balzer Bits for Christmas. They were Paint Strokes and Scribbled Rose which you can see in the bottom right hand corner in the purple Silks Acrylic Glaze. The background was painted with 3 colors of Silk Acrylic Glaze: Love Struck, Teal Zircon and Snapdragon. The paints are real smooth, silky, and they have a metallic sheen to them. I stamped the Scribbled Rose with white acrylic paint on the background and stamped the Paint Strokes bit with black acrylic paint. Across the middle, I glued deli paper with my handwriting using a black Sharpie marker.
The most unusual part about this page is the green circle on the bottom right. I punched out different shapes on some pages throughout Dyan Reaveley’s small journal when I first bought it. The circle is showing a hint of the next journal page in the book.
Wonderful page, Jade!

What a lovely page! And I love how you punched shapes in your journal so that elements from other pages show through. I’ll try that!!

Thanks Michael Somers. I tried punching holes in my journal after I finished the page and I couldn’t find a spot I wanted to give up. Punching holes beforehand all through the book is much easier.

Thank you jmnowak. The journal is small enough to be a travel journal, but I have layered so much on my pages it wont close anymore. Oops! 🙂

Thank you Jenny Petricek. I forgot to mention in my post that those labels are from the Tim Holtz stamp set called “Travel Labels.” I love Tim Holtz’s products.
