Today I would like to share a page I did for Let's Get Sketchy using the latest sketch on their blog.
On busy or dark backgrounds I like to use a lot of Gesso to tone it down some and so that the main focus of the page, the pictures stand out more. Here I did one of my favorite ways to apply Gesso to a page and that is by using an old gift card.
I then sprayed some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Ruby Slippers onto a Styrofoam paper plate and took a lid from a jar and dipped into the mist and randomly stamped it only my page. Then did some splatters and drips with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist Beetle Black.
No idea where I got these red wood bingo pieces but they were kinda fun to use to add dimension to my page. The stars were punched from a piece of cardstock that had a football look and texture on it. No clue who it was made by, I've had it for over 5 years.
The sketch I used for my inspiration.
