This was created using the January Scraps of Elegance kit, A Dream Within A Dream. 

It is a page in my art journal - which was part f a color Add On from Scraps of Elegance.  I was a little unsure of how I would use an art journal or even IF I would use it, but I am actually loving it. 

 My art journal is what I use to play around and try things that maybe I am too timid to try out on pretty papers.  I also try techniques that I learn or that I see.  

This particular journal page is my attempt at "Jen, meet Drycha and ContadinaK"  Karolina Stopyra  or Drycha's work has always provided me with much amazement, inspiration and a desire to be more care free in art and not as contrived and controlled as I am. 

The technique of creating the misted, inked and masking tape background was created after I was inspired watching Vivian Keh, or ContadinaK's technique video.  I thought I would give it a try, using colors that matched the Scraps of Elegance Kit featuring the 13Arts - Frosted Life collection. 

I used the Arrows Stamp from 3rd Eye Stamps by Drycha on the top. 

Thanks for looking at my art work.
