Journal Page for Gecko Galz

If you have signed up for the Gecko Galz newsletter you will have seen my journal pages on the September newsletter.  Each month one design team member is doing a journal page for the newsletter.
If you haven't already signed up to receive the newsletter each month go to http://geckogalzscrapbooking.blogspot.com.au/ to sign up.   When you receive the newsletter you can request the free digital collage sheet for each month.


I painted over both pages with Gesso primer
When dry painted both pages with Impasto Acrylic Paint and Tranquility Acrylic paint.
When dry Stamped waves with Salty Ocean Distress Ink.
Stamped Seawead with Mowed Lawn Distress ink and then painted them with Lime Peel Acrylic paint.
Added punched dolphins and drew bubbles with white gel pen, added silver rhinestones to some of the bubbles.
Printed precoloured mermaids from Gecko Galz Pretty Mermaids collage set and Tiny Mermaids collage sheet, cut out and layered on top.
Sentiments are from Miss Daisy Mermaid Sayings

Printed sea shells to make a border, cut out and layered on top.
