This is Laura's Prompt and technique
Laura, Had such a brilliant idea! I have had such a crazy January but I managed to capture a piece of my January history and use it in this technique.
The prompt Distressing and the technique speckles and splatter

I am learning Dyans Dylusions!!!!
Good morning. I have to confess I have barely tried Dyans art as much as I love it. I think it intimidated me and still does..hahaha BUT I LOVE IT SO MUCH.
I am so honored to be a member of AJED Design Team with http://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/
I hope you have joined our group if not here is the linkhttp://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/group/artjournaleveryday

I have been a Dyan Reaveley "Dylusions" http://www.dyan-reaveley.blogspot.com/
fan for ever. I have another wonderful friend Miranda a fab artist who in my book has mastered Dyans fabulous style of journals ...anyway...my encouragement..we all have people that are our encouragement.
This stamps set is from Dylusions you can find at http://stampersanonymous.com . She is called DoolallyDoris and her item no is DYR34384
ok hope this helps you if you are wanting to try it.
This is far far from good it is a mess hey but I am learning!

Then I tried some stencils one Dylusions and a Wendy Vecchi
just to try to get some "learning" on textures...
what do you think? I kind of like it...
well I added another stencil by Dyan
I added some Tim Holts tissue paper with musical notes in the circles and outlined with black acrylic
The hands are from a awesome red rubber stamp set from Smeared Ink.Here is the link if you want to join the group there.http://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/group/smeared-ink-rubber-club
Now I just wanted to try this ..it is a die cut from Tims collection I stuck on the bottom with gesso
aaahh the cute little footprints..oh this has to be one of my favorites from http://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/group/smeared-ink-rubber-club
