Leftover Paint Art Journal Page!

Just a quick tutorial to show what I created with leftover paint from making my Scribble Scratch Handwriting Notes project posted on StencilGirl Talk last week!

For that project, I made lots of monoprints with my Gelli Plate. After inking the plate each time, I cleaned the brayer off in my art journal by rolling the excess paint directly onto the pages...

When I removed Carolyn Dube's Scribble Scratch Handwriting stencil from the plate between prints, I placed the wet paint-covered stencil onto a page and closed my art journal all the way! I really liked these accidental results...all from cleaning my brayer and stencil between prints!

I grabbed my Typewriter stencil designed by Nathalie Kalbach and taped it with blue painter's tape onto one of the pages...

I pounced heavy-body white acrylic paint with a cosmetic sponge through the stencil...

Lastly, I pounced more white acrylic through parts of Daniella Woolf's Word Play stencil, rotating and moving the stencil about the page so it looked like the letters were flying off the typewriter!

I had fun combining texts without any of it being legible...leaving the focus on the lines, colors, texture and rhythm!
Have fun with your leftover paint, too, and have a great week!
