Art Journal week #25 random things

stamps used:  Stampscapes

Week #25 prompt was an either/or idea so I took the "or" idea - pick random things 

I picked a random draw of stamps which turned out to be full of Stampscape images ..... and then I also just picked random things that were sitting out on my table ..... peerless watercolors and mica watercolors.  I went to town and made a simple watercolor background which turned out to look quite stormy ... but ... that worked out great with the stamps I grabbed out of my draw..... so here is my finished page ..... stormy night.

Galaxy fun

alien card: alien by RSA, moonscape by unmounted(unknown), earth by StarvingArtiststamps

spaceman card: spaceman, planets by StarvingArtiststamps, saying by MFP

Had fun making all these galaxy backgrounds using Peerless watercolors that I've had in my stash for years...many years! and they work beautifully.  with the top two backgrounds I used Peerless watercolors which you will see in video at the bottom of this post or in my Sue Wisniewski - YouTube channel.  for the white stars I just dotted the background with different white gel pens.  the samples at the bottom of the photo I used another product I found in my stash that I've had again for many, many years.....the splotches are MicaColor pigment watercolor paints.  Just keep in mind you can use any watercolors or even re-inkers you have in your stash for this technique.
