Learn What Happens When You Use Brushos With Aquawax With Katie Lamb

Hello crafty friends

I am back with a tutorial showing you how to use the Aquawax. The theme this month is Summer so i made this journal page with warm exotic colours.

First of all i painted the page with gesso and mixed Lemon Brusho Powder with the Aquawax. I  gave it a good stir to distribute the colour and then painted it onto my blank page at random and let it set.

I applied a stencil to the page with modeling paste and let it set before spritzing with water. I then sprinkled Orange, Lemon and OST Red over the page, adding more water to spread the colour across the page.

Adding ink over the Aquawax will create a slight resist effect and will dry with a grungy texture.

Next i mixed Lime Green Brusho Powder with modeling paste and applied it randomly to the page.  Paint a section of white card with Lime Green  Brusho powder and then stamp out 6 larger hearts and 12 small hearts. Stamp a texture over the top with lime green ink and leave to dry. Next mix Lime Green Brusho with Thickener to make a glaze. 

Paint this over the top and cut out the hearts.

Glue the hearts onto the page in a flower shape and then stamp out a few small flowers onto card. Paint these in green and cutout, 

Use as flower centres.

Paint the corner of the journal with gesso and add a little lemon over the top.

Stamp out inspirational words onto tissue paper and glue to corner of page. Apply the glue onto the page first otherwise the tissue will tear.
