Dylusions week day 4 with Gio

Hello :o)
A touch of scrapbooking today with miss Gio. Colourful, vibrant and fun, that's what you get when you put the Dylusions sprays in Gio's hands.






Take a 30X30 cardstock and glue to it some scraps of book pages and paper flowers using Claudine Hellmuth Studio Matte medium. Add some strips of masking tape.
Cut lightly the masking tape making some vertical lines. Cover with Claudine Hellmuth Studio White Gesso. Once dry, open up a little bit with the fingers the masking tape, to create texture.



Start to spray different colors of Dylusions ink: Bubblegum pink, Vibrant turquoise and Crushed grape. Let the ink runs down then dry a little bit with the heat gun and a kitchen roll. Mix Bubblegum pink and Vibrant turquoise on the left corner and dry; mix Pure sunshine and Vibrant turquoise on the bottom right corner and dry. Add some drop from the bottle of ink and dry with the kitchen roll. 
When everything is dry stamp here and then using Dylusions stamps: Background love and Jet Black Archival ink. 

TIP: If you want to stamp with the same shade of the ink, mix a little bit of gesso and some drops of ink, then brushed it on the stamp. 


Cut and glue the pictures to the background and write some journaling and doodle with a black permanent marker.





Now for the calendar.... 

I cut a piece of white cardstock to size, then I sticked some pieces of masking tape now and then. I cut lightly the masking tape making some vertical lines. I covered all the surface with Claudine Hellmuth Studio White Gesso. Once dry, I opened up a little bit the masking tape with the fingers , to create texture.
I sprayed different colors of Dylusions ink: Bubblegum pink, Vibrant turquoise and Crushed grape. 
I let the ink runs down then I dried a little bit with the heat gun and a kitchen roll. I mixed Bubblegum pink and Vibrant turquoise on the left corner and let dry;
I mixed Pure sunshine and Vibrant turquoise on the bottom right corner and let dry. 
I added some drops from the bottle of ink and dried with the kitchen roll. 
When everything was dry I stamped randomly using Dylusions stamps: Background love and Jet Black Archival ink. 
I added the picture, some doodling with a black permanent pen and the month.
