7 backgrounds in 7 days - day 6

Goodmorning everybody,

It's a grey sundaymorning here, so I thought to bring some sunshine with some colorful backgrounds in progress.

I colored the stamped watches with watersoluble crayons


Made some texture paste and applied it through a homemade brick stencil


added some detail to the butterflies with liquids pearls petal pink


stamped stars with stazon in 3 colors:olive green, ganache and claret


With this background I went a bit radical, I colored it in using 3 colors of gelsticks, glad I did that because now I'm finally starting to like it.


To keep with the metallic I added some pink metallic thread


I outlined the tape with a white gelstick and added it also to the raised areas of the texture paste.


This weather is excellent to go to my studio and apply the last layer to these backgrounds without having to feel guilty. 
thanks for stopping by and be sure to come back tomorrow to see the finished backgrounds.
