My Silhouette Journal

This is the temporary cover as I am going to use some beautiful cloth that Janie sent to me. I'll do it when my journal comes home.
Front Cover with images from The Graphics Fairy and letters stenciled with black gesso and cut out. Also added some splatters with Cosmic Shimmer Powder in Midnight Sky.

Inside back cover - I used White paint on red card and squished both sides together to get some texture. After that dried I added Cosmic Shimmer pixie powders and spray inks and copper paint.

Back Cover

1st page - this is a photo I took a few years ago. It is printed on copy paper and the journal page underneath has a coat of black gesso.

2nd page - Info about silhouettes in art and the figure is a Dyan Reavely stencil done with black gesso, cut out and adhered to the page.

3rd Page - Another one of my photos. I took this some years ago and also did the editing then so I can't remember exactly what I did. I knew that I wanted to use this photo as soon as I had decided on Silhouettes as my theme.
