Michelles crusade this month involves messing about with brush effects and that is exactly what I did! Working in this black journal (again!) and using some very bright paints, I stencilled, monoprinted, and used both clean and dirty dry brush techniques! One of the interesting things I did was stippling with a hard brush which I did to fill in the Orange flower which had gone rather 'blobby' when I had stencilled it. I am feeling rather pleased that I managed to cover up something which had not turned out as I had expected. Anyway, I still feel I have a little more to do here but wanted to put this one up for starters.

Julie - this rocks! LOVE the black pages!! Isn't it less intimidating to start on? Fab fab fab monoprints of the flowers, and I spy some brushed monoprinting too. The page has it all and really looks grand. Thanks for sharing with the team!
looks like fun.
The black background really makes a strong contrast...love the results!
I like! Nice work. Marlynn
I love the black background, Julie ! I like the lite brite glow. Love the flower prints !
Excellect brush effects, Crusader !
was your place very messy after doing all these techniques.
Beautiful !!!
The flowers seem so bright & outstanding on the black background.
Having been really taken with all the reds people have used, it's the medium blue that rocks for me on your pages - I think it looks great. Love the flowers.
Like the yellow brush going through the page...
The black background really makes everything POP! Awesome job.
I love this! What a lively and wild image! Nice job.
Really nice color palette on the black. It makes me think of one of the lighted chalk marker boards, but MUCH better.
I have never seen anyone use a black background for their journal! Imagine that! I see from all the other comments I'm not alone with that.
You are over the top!
Have a great hair day!
