Art Journaling with Dina Wakley - Week 6

This blog post is about the Index Card A Day creative challenge.

This year I am using the challenge to work through two Art Journal books by Dina Wakley.

I am using what supplies I already have to hand,
adapting the techniques when necessary.

I am now reading through the second art journal book, Art Journal Courage.

I used the following materials:-

Acrylic Paint (Orchid)
Stabilo All Black Pencil

Card 27 - Me, myself & I

Index Card 27

Progress through this book is slow, so only three cards this week.

It took me a long time to make the face stencil for card 27,
but I am thrilled with the result.
