Go with the flow

Force nothing

Let it happen...

trust that whichever way it goes

it's for the best.

Hello,

Gosh, it has been a while since I've been here.
This time not only no action on my blog, but also in the craft room.
But I feel the tide is turning.

Still working on my background challenge,
still loving it,
because it is so freeing; 
I don't need to worry about what to create, 
what the finished piece needs to look like,....
And in some or even the most cases the outcome is almost a finished page.


Here you can see some step by step pictures of the creation of background #73:

Hello,

With the next background I went a bit on the geometry tour.
I used some stencils, sprayink and acrylic paint.

Next I gessod all over it, knowing that the inks would spread.

In the lines I suddenly saw a big arrow, which I painted black,
this led to the arrow stamps, the stars are in the same set, hence the stars.

I gave it a nice glow with some gold interference paint. Hard to capture on photo though, but I think you can see a glimpse of it.
I'm not sure of the center image, thinking of a globe instead, we'll see how this ones evolves (probably I will need to do a follow up on the 100 backgrounds, 100 finished pages J)

Hello,

my 81th post this year,
one more already than all 2016,
next goal: 97 (posts in 2015)

I started out with just putting some random things on the page: 
collage with paper scraps and some stencilling

Next the acrylic paints came out to play

I like the yellow and the bold colors,

but they don't seem to work together very well,

so I obscured the bold lettering with a magazine clipping

better, after some more fiddling with oil pastels it looks like this

I see a silhouette of a face in the left corner (though not very visible on the picture)

Hello,

It's been a while,
not that I've not been crafting,
just not been blogging.

My next background in the series is very grungy,
It started out with this black and white collage

and evolved into this

I think this would be a good base for a masculin card.
