Papers. papers, papers!

I know that a lot of you are still having very hot weather but I am pleased to say that for a few days we have had it a little cooler, and even though the forecast is saying it will get hotter later this week it has made a nice change!

We have a new theme at Try It On Tuesday where we would like you to Use Book Paper(or magazine or newspaper) in your entries.

I had a page in my A5 Pink Pig journal that had leaked through some inks - I stamped over the page with a Carabelle letter stamp.
I selected two pages from my box, one from my lovely King Arthur tales and another from my old college nutrition text book!

I stamped out my image - a Paper Artsy Lynne Perella one and a word stamp from Visible Image.
I tore them down to size and mounted them onto black paper which I tore to make a border
I wanted to pick up on some of the blue in the background....

 ...I dabbed Blueprint Sketch Distress ink onto an acrylic block and spritzed and painted both pieces of paper...

..and left the face uncoloured for contrast.
I cut out some randomly cut hearts and added them to the page.

I hope that the brilliant samples the design team have made inspire you to take part this time, as usual the challenge runs for two weeks.

I would also like this to be for my 
Art For Arts Sake theme at Art Journal Journey
and
the Distress It theme at The Artistic Stamper 

Thanks for looking, Chris
