Hello Lovelies,
Today I have an entry for Stampotique's recent challenge which is "sentimental". And the page I'm about to share with you was one that I didn't think I would share with anyone because it is one of my most personal art journal pages I feel I have ever made.
I made this page to document something important that happened to me, my boyfriend left to go to Italy to work for 5 months and I am so happy and proud of him but a part of me also felt lost in a way. Without going into further details; this is why this page was made.
I used so many different paints and sprays to create the background along with many different stamps. I used Minky girl stamp and colored her in with copics.
The sentiment is written using rub-on letters.
And I used a number stencil by Dylusions with modelling paste to add random numbers all around the pages. These numbers represent the time and days he will be away.
This page is very sentimental to me and I hope Stampotique members will like it.
Thanks for stopping by!
Serena
