Jeudi Journal - Circles

Well, it was all change this week as I had begun doing some circles using a couple of my stencils but the paste I put through reacted with the black paint underneath.  It turned an ugly shade of yellowish brown!  Ugh!

I had intended doing some circles with Tracy Scott images on them and fully intended cutting them out by hand but then on Sunday I went to one of her workshops where we did a canvas (not posted yet) and the previous day she had done a journal page which was utterly gorgeous.  It gave me the idea of using a sheet of card that I had already coloured in and stamped in readiness to make a card for someone special.  Card not done yet!

Anyway I then die-cut some circles and stamped some of Tracy's images on some of them and voila, the page was born, in my head.  It then evolved into two pages as I decided to use a big stamp I had not used since buying it.  A bit of paint on the small circles I had already put on through a stencil, the larger circles stencilled on were covered with the new ones along with some small circles.

So here you have it - my page for Wendy to see using circles but calling them "Bubbles".


Sorry I chopped a bit of the "B" off in the scan



Not at all like the ones Tracy taught - wonder if she will repeat that page - I would love to do hers. Now what is the topic for next week?
