Here is the whole page


Well....here is the whole page...I may not have time this week to get on much, so this is my page inspired by Aprils inspiration over at artastic...can't show you the inspiration yet...
I made all the background papers myself by gessoing a4 paper and then washing over it with acrylic, tearing it apart and glueing it to the page...i had fun drawing the little city scene and colouring using my water colour pencils which i love!!!!
this is one of the very few potos of all of us...lol...i gessoed over the whole lot one last time, but NOT over the little city scene...it will just wash all the colour everywhere...does that make sense???
Okey dokey...
until next time
lots of it
Mandy

Great page, great picture of your whole family. I grew up in a family of 8 kids, you're right, you don't get alot of pics with everyone together.
Love your Artistic Mother papers, mine not so much, they need work.
Enjoy Pride and Prejudice!
