Wishy Washi

 
Found some nice rolls of washi tape in my local art shop and so thought i'd better make some use of them! I used Gelatos and scribbled nice thick patches at the top of the page. Then spritzed lots of water to create my washy watercolour drips. Added some washi tape and stamped first with Gelatos again, then with some Staz on ink. I added my word for 2013 'Create' .

 
I designed this art journal page with the followin challenges in mind:
Faber-Castell Design Memory Crafts: January challenge
A Year in the Life of an Art Journal: Word for 2013 and watercolours
Simon Says: Washi tape

    I've not heard of Gelatos Clare and ashamed to say never used washi tape either. Great interesting piece and colour. You will have to do a lesson with these things - me thinks!!
