This page I experimented with painting on my page. I took a piece of Crystal Blue Cardstock and I distressed it with sand paper. I did this to start the layering of of the distressing process and also to help the paint "stick" Then I took acrylic paint and added chocolate, cocoa and desert sand reinker. I was after a certain color to match the deep reddish brown that was in the secondary paper I was using. The picture really doesnt show the true color of the painting but I got really close. Then using a dry brush technique I went around the entire paper and painted. Basically taking the "blue" out for the most part. Then using the treasure life set and the Cocoa ink I stamped some shadowed images on the back ground. Then layered the front with images I cut from the secondary paper. The butterfly is lifted a bit with foam tape.
And there you have it. All supplies were Close To My Heart with the exception of the secondary paper.
