Adding Some Text

 Hi everyone,the last two weeks have gone so quickly and it's time for a new theme at Try It On Tuesday. We would like you to 'Add Some Text' - not just a sentiment, we'd like to see more words than just that. The Design Team have found some great ways of adding text.

I use text stamps quite a lot in my art journaling, often added as a background or to fill in gaps.

This is a page in one of my small journals and I have used tissue paper, a sticker, an art stamp I made a while ago, a piece of stamped paper along with some small images and some stamped dots.

I hope you will join us at TIOT this time and 'Add Some Text'. As usual you have two weeks to enter and just in case you need them the Rules and Guidelines are here.

We have had a number of grey days and I have just realised how this has affected my mood when making this page! We have been forecast some sun today...I'm waiting!! 

Thanks for looking, Chris

You added some super text examples Chris. I forgot about tissue paper when I was making my page. And I like how you didn't go overboard on the color. This is a really lovely page. Hope 2026 is going well. hugs-Erika

It might be your small journal but there's lots of detail and interest in the layers on this page Chris. I like the muted colours and I do think the weather can reflect our colour choices. Avril xx
