“Live each day as if it were the last day of your life because so far, it is.”

The background for this page was made applying several colours of Inka Gold using a baby wipe.  The texture was created using a combination of hot glue and torn masking tape.  I applied Inka Gold to the textured area using my finger.  I created a stripe down the left and right sides of the page by masking off a half-inch section using masking tape and rubbing Inka Gold onto the exposed area with a damp sponge.  The words were edged with Inka Gold applied with a sponge, and then collaged on.  I applied white acrylic paint here and there using drywall mesh.  Buttons were added last.

Although not easily visible in the photo, Inka Gold has a metallic sheen that makes it a truly unique product.

This was one of five inspiration pages for a class I taught at Scrap Arts called “Art Journaling with Inka Gold” in September, 2013.  We’ll be offering this class again on January 9, 2014.  To sign up, phone the store at 604-980-8811.
