Let's Get Messy at Try it on Tuesday


 It's time for a new challenge at Try it on Tuesday and this fortnight we're getting messy, so I decided to dust off my journal - I haven't done any journaling for ages and I really enjoyed making this page.

I started with a watery coat of gesso, then some ink sprays.  I stamped my image - Freya from Art Journey stamps and then added some torn napkin.  There's some random music script in the background to tie in with the words.
The rest of the Design Team have some very varied inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog for all the details AND some news - we have two new team members Pia and Viv joining us today.

I'm going to join in a Art Journal Journey with this page as it fits Erika's theme of Seeing Red.

I'll be around at the end of the week  - I'm only having one day off Grandma duties this week!  Hope I make it to Friday tea time.

Gosh, Avril. That is a gorgeous journal page and not very messy at all compared to what I call a mess. It is lovely and I really like how you used the red napkin. That made it perfect for Erika's theme at Art Journal Journey. Thanks for sharing it.
