Another Art Journal Page Completed

Another Art Journal page completed in my small mont marte journal.  The background was painted with black gesso.  I then stenciled the butterfly with white gesso using a large stencil I have from the Crafter's Workshop TCW206.  Then using rose Quartz, Pomegranate see, and funky fuchsia Dylusions paints, I did a color fade over the white gesso through the stencil.  I used iridescent medium through a Heidi Swapp stencil in some areas of the background and then did some asemic writing in the background with white gel pen.  The title is from the Dina Wakley Stamp set Scribbly insects.

My entry for the May 2019 Dina Wakley Facebook group challenge

This is my entry for the Dina Wakley Facebook group May 2019 challenge:  "Happiness is not a station you arrive at but a manner of traveling".  The challenge was to do something in watercolor.  This was a cotton rag page in my Dina journal and I used eggplant, Lime, Olive and black scribble sticks watered down as my watercolor background - did some stamping with my black scribble stick.  I used dina's stamp set "Text and scribbles" and my sewing machine on some strips and circles cut from leftover gell plate prints.  The title is from Verses rubber stamp company "Along the way".  the circle and stitches stamped on the background is a stamp set from Carabelle Studios SA60184.  The butterfly is from a Roben Marie Smith downloadable.
