POP AND COLOURS WORKSHOP WITH IRINA

This is the layout that I created after taking the workshop with Irina Teeshoom.  This was completely out of my comfort zone and I had not used this much water colour on a page before.  In saying this, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of creating this layout.

I used gelatos as the water colours with the exception of the black which was a paint. Paper - Suede.  I found that it was very responsive to the water colours.  Here are some close ups:

Thanks for stopping by and have hope you have a lovely day :)
