The other day Lou Withers did a live demonstration and challenged us to join her. We had to take a piece of 12 x 12 paper that we didn't like much and transform it into something completely different.
This was the piece of paper I started with:

As you can see it was a Christmas paper with a pale green/beige background with gingerbread men and stars etc.
This was the finished result:
I started off with three shades of blue acrylic through different stencils. We then kept adding more paint, using a different colour - I chose red. Again more paint through stencils, and some stamping with paint. Then more paint- this time white through another stencil to "knock it back" a tad. Finally some random stamping with some iridescent orange with stamps and the edge of an old credit card.
Quite a transformation I think you will agree ...... and completely out of my comfort zone. However, it was fun and occupied me for a couple of hours in this period of isolation for us all.
I hope you are all keeping safe and well.
