text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The photo and the papers complement each other, the fussy cutting picking out the greys and greens from his hoody and the stencilling, and the papers picking out the the browns from the wood.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The page is made up in 3 layers, firstly the stencilled leaves, using a Finnabair Impasto paint sponged through the stencil onto the base sheet, taking into consideration the placing of the photo and embellishments so that the stencilling can be seen poking out the sides.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Then second layer is the layering of the back papers, different widths and lengths going vertically and horizontally, I distressed the edges of these strips to add more texture to the page.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The die cut leaves are are in this layer too, layered up with the strips again taking into consideration the placing of the photo so that the leaves can be seen.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I take several photo's as I go along of the positioning of things so that when I place them all and am happy I then take them apart and glue them in place but can forget where they were so a photo is great to look at for the gluing part.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The last layer is the photo and the fussy cutting plus the title, the photo is mounted and then I use 3D foam pads so that it adds some height and allows me to be able to tuck things underneath, again I have placed all my pieces on and when I am happy I take a photo to look back on. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I have placed a flower under the E of the title using 3D foam pad to raise it up level with the photo to keep the title level.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Some of the flowers are tucked under the photo and some are overlapping onto the photo and overlapping each other.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;"> the title and light bulbs go on next adding a couple more cogs under the title to make sure it is attached well and secure, more black gesso, i do this on the different levels as it is easier to get everything covered, if you leave it to the end you will find it hard to get to the bottom layer, some more texture is then added with gel medium and glass glitter and beads, when dry more black gesso and then when all is nice and dry in with the paint and wax, dry painted so pretty much get all the paint off of a stiff paint brush and gently brush over gradually building up the paint, three colours i used , going over with one colour then the next and the next then picking through the colours again until i am happy, you cansee that the black base is still very visible.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">to start with on this project as it is a bound notebook i started by stippling the spine with white gesso and round the edge of the cover, i dried it with my heat gun and then stippled the paint on, no need to do the middle as it will be covered, i did the back in the same way but had to wait till one side was completely dry before doing the second side .</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">i then cut papers to fit the front only not the spine and slightly smaller. i glued on using my 3d gel and then painted all over with my clear gesso and dried.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">i then sponged the orange paint through my stencil randomly over the front and back .</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">i added some of the bead gel around the book edges and in parts around the frame and dried them.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">i then sprinkled some of the colour glow in places and sprayed with water to activate and move the colour around a little and then dried.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">i painted my mdf leaves and feathers with the paint and when dry just distressed the edges with black my black ink pad.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">i fussy cut a flower collection and a single sun flower and butterfly and layered up the paper pieces and mdf feathers and leaves.and added my butterfly.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">firstly i went over my bas page with some clear gesso, i like to do this as for one thing it makes the page a bit stronger plus if i then decide to add some ink it allows it to move and be on top of the page rather than just sink where it hits!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">it just happens that it had a little it of red ink on my paint brush that i didn't notice so it coloured the page a little but that was good it fitted in with the colour scheme really well.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">i then cut a circle from my hessian and placed it in the middle of my page, i then did some fussy cutting, lots of fussy cutting lol</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">i painted my "together" title and my butterfly white, then placing the photo raised on 3d foam pads in the middle i then added my fussy cut pieces, title and butterfly and built the circle up until i was happy with the result.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">i finished with some white splatters and black splatters.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
