Crazy in Love

I spent a lot of time in the Command Center and I'm ready to share lots and lots of projects.  I checked my favorite challenge sites, Off the Rail Scrapbooking and Try it on Tuesday for some inspiration.  I was excited to combine both these challenges.  There's a mood board on Off the Rail Scrapbooking.



 Try it on Tuesday's challenge is to try something new.  I've been wanting to create a mix media collage using shades of gray on the background.  So, I did it!  And I love it!  Since the mood board included only one color, red, I stayed within the challenges.

I tried making a video of the process, but I swear I just cannot figure out how to make a clean video.  I think I need to break down and actually purchase an app, I was just hoping to be able to do something cool with a free one.

So, instead of a video, here's a photo of the final project.


I used acrylic paint for the background (shades of gray, black and white), red watercolor paint, assorted markers, old book pages, stencils, black ink, doily, paper scraps and cardboard letters.
