A new journal page...

 




Good Friday Morning Ladies, 

I hope that you have all had a good week.  Lilian I'd like to congratulate you and Roger on your Diamond Wedding Anniversary,  what a huge achievement,  I hope that you have a lovely weekend celebrating with your family.  

Bladder Clinic was ok yesterday, she agreed with me that the uti is still there despite 16 days of Antibiotics!  So I contacted nurse and she has prescribed different antibiotics for me to pick up this morning,  fingers crossed they work. 🤞🤞🤞

I am sharing a new journal page today, made using Stamperia products.  

I painted the journal page with gold paint, then added a few patches of vaseline (after it was dry) next came a layer of 'Ivory' acrylic paint,  


As it dries you can see the little cracks appearing...


So after it had dried completely I took a piece of kitchen roll to rub gently over those little cracks to discover the gold underneath....


After all of that was dry I added some background stamping.  
Then I used a variety of paper die cuts to build the focal point,  for a change I used my wax stamp to add a different texture and to give a perfect a
sentiment. 



 Thanks to Vicki P for inspiration! 

I hope that you all have a lovely day, 

Love & hugs to all of you,  

Sandra xxx

  1. Hi everyone
    Absolutely love your journal page, it’s beautiful 😍 I’m intrigued with the Vaseline technique, will have to give that a go.
    I’m hoping to start a journal page today, but am waiting for a sentiment stamp to arrive from Inkylicious. It’s due today so fingers crossed 😊
    Fingers crossed the antibiotics work and finally clear up your UTI 🥰
    Another cold one with a hard frost, I won’t be venturing out today!
    Have a good day everyone
    Sending hugs to you all xx

  2. Your journal pages are lovely and this Vaseline technique intrigues me too
    I do hope that these antibiotics get rid of the infection I know how draining a UTI can feel

    Take care everyone xx

  3. Hi Sandra and everyone. A gorgeous page today I love every bit of it And I’m also intregued with the Vaseline technique.
    I’m hoping this bout of antibiotics finally do the job 🤞🏻xx
    We, me Chris Gem and Gary, are on our way to Longleat which will end with their light trail this evening so a long but lovely day. I am quite nervous as It will be the first full day of using my powerchair, who has been rechristened Zoom, as I will soon be Zooming around on it according to the family🤭! Have a good day. Wrap up if you go out, it is very cold at the moment here but with beautiful blue skies. Take care. Love Sue xx

  4. Hi everyone
    First I like to wish our Lilian a Happy Golden Anniversary ! 💐 Have a lovely time with your daughter and son in law.
    The card yesterday is stunning. So many layers tho. Beautifully coloured in.
    Today's journey page is lovely. I still some to try and of course I would like to try the vaseline technique.
    Sue, have a lovely day at Longleat. It's a place I love to go to but haven't been yet. Don't zoom around to fast will you 😉
    Karen enjoy your day.
