My DT project is an altered art journal cover.
This is the cover that I’ve altered. I started by removing the chipboard pieces to give me a flat surface to work on.
I found some embossed and die cut card and some wooden pieces that I thought I would use.
I painted the cover with gesso and adhered some of the embossed and die cut card, I decided to use the wooden butterflies, when all the glue was dried I gave it another coat of gesso and then painted it with Decoart acrylic paints, I also used gelatos to add colour.
I dry brushed the cover with some white acrylic paint and added splatters, then I added some metalic wax, the wax doesn't show up on the photo.
This photo shows the front and back, I used a napkin to decorate the back, I think I prefer it to the front.
Thank you for dropping by and enjoy your day, I'm off to the haidressers soon - I'd rather stay in my warm house though. xxx
The new cover for your journal looks beautiful Hazel.

Oh lovely - it's springtime here too! I love the soft rainbow colours - pretty in the bright version and even prettier after the white drybrushing. A fabulous new cover look.
