I have multiple projects going most of the time. This is something I played with last month - still trying out spray inks! I saw some Dylusion inks on sale and bought a couple colors, then bought a few more bottles at Stampaway when I ran across them. They are such vibrant colors and they spray really well. I think these are my new favorite spray inks. (No affiliation, yada yada yada...)The first and last pictures are done with black and blue inks. The middle two are brown and blue. I sprayed heavy layers and stood the journal up to let it drip. Now these pages are just waiting for the next step (whatever that may turn out to be!)
These inks are from Dyan Reaveley, and I used her techniques. This last one, I used a paint brush dipped in water to draw leaves - the water removes the ink from the page, leaving that part whiter. I experimented using black and then white to outline the leaves and make vines. Not sure which I like the most. These pictures are really dark, but the pages in person are very bright and vibrant.

I'm really attracted to the movement of the middle two. Looks like those pages need very little. They are beautiful as they stand. Also, I like the interest both vines bring to the page. Wish I could see them in person.:-)
