Adding to the fun I was using some of my favourite Lynne Perella stamps by Paper Artsy!
I stencilled and stamped over the page then toned everything down with gesso. I lightly crumpled some paper add dipped into some watery ink on my mat! Once dry I stamped the image on it! The rest was just some scraps that I stamped onto using stamps from the same set and some tiny punched book paper circles.
I would also like to join in the Neutral Zone challenge at A Vintage Journey
I just realised that I hadn't linked this while we were away!!!!
I'll be home soon with tales of Paris!
Thanks for looking, Chris

This is beautiful, Chris - the LP woman looks right at home amidst these subtle shadowy greys. Thanks so much for joining us on A Vintage Journey.
