Mij Round Robin Art Journal torn apart.....

Hi girls, hope you are all doing well. Yesterday I had a play at my friend Astrid's house and I decided to take apart my Round Robin journal which I received back a couple of weeks ago. Itwas so thick the ring that bound it couldn't really take it, and there are quite some spreads to go until it is full. Since I own a Bind it All, I can put a larger spiral in, and on top of that it makes it easier to work on the loose pages. So I made my first spread yesterday. The background I made with some soft green en blue acrylic paints.
I used my brandnew TCW stencil to make the grungy shapes using a sponge and an armygreen acrylic paint. I then took out some modeling paste and made the butterflies with the same stencil.
I used my (also brandnew) LSG embossingpowder Oakleaf Olive to stamp this large dragonfly and the Field Notes which are stamps by Tattered Angels.
In de background I stamped some tiny script with a Prima stamp and Archival Cornflower Blue. I used a babywipe and the same ink to take the bright white off the butterflies, and distress the edges of the papers.
Unfortunately the colours don't really appear on the photos the way they are in real life, and the gorgeous shimmer of the embossingpowder doesn't show up either, but it will have to do.
I hope you have a great week, and see you in the weekend.
Hugs Frea
