Art Journal Page - - Glass Bead Gel + Gold Mica Flakes = True Love

I was painting the other day and suddenly I thought, "What if I use Glass Bead Gel and Gold Mica Flakes together?" So, I tried it out and man oh man! Is the result a shimmery, shiny, glorious mess of texture. Here is an art journal page I made using this mixture thru a Donna Downey Floral Stencil. Thanks so much for looking! ~Jenn Supplies (in order of appearance): Heather Kindt Stencil “Book Text” http://etsy.me/2dtvNZd ·          Golden Molding Paste - - http://amzn.to/2cCQO2c ·          Vintage Text Book Papers ·          Circle Drywall Tape - - http://bit.ly/2cu4KIj ·          Collage Pauge - - http://amzn.to/1lhZcFH ·          Liquitex Professional Gesso - - http://amzn.to/2cu47P8 ·          Gelatos – Tropical Set - - http://amzn.to/2d0TLu3 ·          Distress Crayons Set 1 - - http://amzn.to/2cXbCo2 ·          Distress Crayons Set 2 - - http://amzn.to/2cw5bXI ·          NeoColor II in Light Grey - - http://amzn.to/2dr5wIk

Altered Box for Our Mixed Media Moods

It's that time again! The collab between DeeDee Catron and myself where we create projects using a mood board. Here is this month's mood board: I used a lot of elements from the mood board in my project; the typewriter, the greens, the vintage papers, the keys and the doilies. You can join in, too. Just create a project using any element (s) from the mood board and link up to DeeDee's Blog! Be sure to check out DeeDee's project and process video here!
