Christmas wishes!!!

Hi everyone! I have another Journal page for Erika's Vintage and Modern theme at Art Journal Journey! I hope it isn't too early for a Christmassy page!

The page has had a few transformation along the way, it was quite bright so I knocked back the colour with Fresco Snowflake paint to with I added some Quinacranine gold watered down.
Some time later I added some stencilling and finally I added the book text - smooshed into some distress ink, some random stamping, a Crafty Individuals image(I think from the Christmas image book- it was loose in my Christmas box)I added some Tim Holtz snippets.
This is the same page taken in artificial light - nothing has been done to the page it's just the red/green magic!!! I would like to enter at 
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday - Baby It's Cold Outside

Thanks for looking, Chrisx

  3. I love the texture and the glitz. It's amazing how different an image can look under different light forms. It's beautiful in any light. Thank you so much for sharing it with us at Art Journal Journey, too, dear Chris.

  4. Nope. Thanksgiving has ended here in the US and that's my rule for the Christmas cut off. But then again, I made a couple of pages before Thanksgiving. Love the vintage lady and the colors are perfect. Thanks so much for joining in Chris! Much appreciated! Hugs-Erika
