Happy Accident

This journal page started out to be my contribution to the ColourArte texture challenge the journal was one of my smaller ones so I set it aside after adding gesso, stamps using archival ink and H20 Fern and sky Blue.  I picked it back up finished the one flower I had started to paint with spiced pumpkin silks (one whole petal) I added some titanium white to some spiced pumpkin to add some highlights and and acrylic yellow for the center.  I added some texture and some more stamps using archival ink.  I dried all that and let it sit.  Then I used several spray mists and misted a bit of  water to make it run.  What I hadn't counted on is the base and the stamps on top of the base to basically slide off the page.  This is what I ended up with.

This is where I decided I needed a bigger page.

First I added texture paste.


I added more stamps.  Then the sprays.












I used flowers I had and some silk flowers from stems from the craft store that were ment for flower arrangements, lace I had, glitter, gem and beads from Michaels.  I finished with Teal zircon and black ice silks splatters from colour arte.
