I have an A4 Pink Pig Journal, several in fact, and used one of these to create my project. The pages are quite robust for adding water, paint, etc. I started by sprinkling Turquoise, Violet and Lime Green Brusho onto the pages, (which I had placed newspaper underneath, so that I could keep the rest of the journal dry), and then spritzed the pages with water. I used two large spare pieces of watercolour paper to blot the pages, so that the excess water did not run everywhere, and I now have two extra pieces of background for other projects.
I added some stencilling with both Distress Inks and white paint. I chose to use in particular Three Quarter Face, and added a stamped image from the Texture Fragments stamp set below to give the suggestion of a lacy dress. I also added an image from the Tangled Fragments stamp set and Shabby Shutters Distress Ink to build up the background layers. I added a few bottle top ring marks using left over white paint to echo the circular stencil that I had used.
Finally, I added sentiments from the Positive Pants and Rockstar Diva stamp sets.

The mixture of colours is delightful & I love your use of the Texture Fragments set for the lacy dress effects. Your placing of elements is always instructive to see & I like the way you have different fonts across the two pages. The two images look almost as if they are having a conversation across the two pages. The Tangled Fragments echoes the shape of the circular dartboard stencil image with the lozenge shapes & I can see you'll have fun working with this.
Hi Judith wonderful work, love your colours and the design. Lovely words worked into it all, Kate x
