SHABANG!! Worked on Lots Today

So I have been working on my journal pages again and I finished one that has been sitting on my craft table for a few tables. I've been working on it and leaving it and working on it again and leaving it etc.. etc... I finally finished it today. Here is a look at that page.

Then I also worked on another journal page today with more of a "Spring" theme. I'm only working on the background so far and figured I would take pics as I go along. My journal pages usually go through many steps before they are finished so here is the first step. For this portion I used Dyan Reaveley's new Stamp set and clear embossing powder to create a resist and then I used the new Dyan Reaveley Vibrant Turquoise spray (love this stuff) and some of the tattered Angels glimmer mists on top of that. I then stamped the stamp on a another piece of paper and this time used a black embossing powder and used Tim Holtz Distress Stain on top of that. Once it dried I cut out the flowers and will place those around the page. I haven't put these down permanently yet, I want to do some stenciling first but this gives you an idea of how this is going to pop.

Take a look:

Lastly, remember those card kits that I was talking about last month in this post HERE, well I finally finished my last one. Here it is if you would like to take a look. :) Enjoy.
