Create Art Journal

HAPPY NEW YEAR
2015 - wow !
when did that happen ??
 
Below is one of the projects that I did to enter the Scapbooking Memories Masters competition.
I love the criteria they give you every year, this one really got my mojo flowing and I love what I created. 
 
This is my Art Journal cover - I have added lots of photos because it is so dimensional and has layer upon layer.
 
 

I have used Bo Bunny paper in the background that also has a pipework pattern.
The edges of the piece are using Dusty Attics Corregated card, painted with Dusty attic silver paint and lots of different Tattered anglel Mists and embossing powders to give the rust effect  





 
 
The enamel embossing powder I used gave it that "mottled, mouldy look" I was going for. 
 
 


I distressed and bent the chipboard so much to make it look worn and old .
Dusty Attic chippy is so thick and is awesome for doing this to.


 
 
I added wire and metal bits and pieces
