A PaperArtsy Journal Page

The fabulous Linda Cain is hosting the PaperArtsy challenges again this week, and WOW what she doesn't do with colour isn't worth doing! She's had us using Portfolio pastels - (it seems I'd accidentally ordered them so it would be rude not to use them :-)  paints, inks, stamps, stencils, pens, and my most favourite bit tissue tape. If I only take one thing away from this (and believe me I won't) it will be a new found love of tissue tape.
I've used stamps from Ink and The Dog and Lynne Perrella.
Thanks so much Linda for your fabulous step by step, and thanks for looking ....enjoy the snow - again xx.

    Gorgeous Sue and after reading your post I realised that I didn't use tissue tape at all, I used tissue paper - lol

    Wonderful use of colour Sue, the pastels sound interesting and the results are fabulous. Love the tag in the centre. This piece definitely packs a colour punch. Tracy x
