More Than Words - "Playlist" and Ephemera

 Good Morning all and Happy September!  

Today at  More Than Words, we have a brand new challenge up for the month of September

I had fun with this art journal spread! I used some tissue paper for the background, added some white gesso wash over this. I used a new stencil and turquoise acrylic paint to add some colour. I added some ephemera I have had in my stash for forever, my little singing girl, and my sentiment... which describes my current playlist! LOL!. 

I do hope you check out what my teammates have done and share your projects with us on our blog, FB page or Instagram!

Have fun creating your playlist this month!
