Sin City Stamps - Terri Sproul Art Journal 2

Molding paste

Stazon blue ink

White gesso

Gelatos 

Water colors

Cardstock

Dictionary paper

Copics

glue or matte medium

The first thing I did was sketch out a santa face so I knew approx. where he would be on both pages. Then I got out my stamps and white gesso. I stamped randomly with my unmounted stamps using gesso as a resist. Next I watercolored a blue background.

I used red gelatos to bring out that resist. More background stamping this time with blue stazon ink.

Time for texture! But before this stage I used dictionary paper for a mustash. Next the molding paste. Like icing a cake! 

 I used copic markers to color his face

 More stamping with white gesso, rolling my stamp over the page with a brick background. And now embellishments with some fussy cutting and glue.

I hope you have enjoyed my goofy side as much as I had fun making it! Thank you to Cottonwoodarts our november sponsor

I hope I have inspired you to create your own goofy side!.

Thank you for joining me! Stamps and Stencils and much more can be found at Sin City Stamps
