It's all white

Hi everyone,

This time the theme is "W is for White" over at Simon Says Monday Challenge! What makes you think about, when thinking of white? Maybe a beautiful bridal card? Or something winter-like? I'm very curious to see what you'll come up with!



I got my art journal for this one and made all white pages. Which are very difficult to photograph, and I'm not really a photographer, although I've done a whole photoshoot to get the best pictures I could. But enough about my crappy photograph skills...



It is quite hard to use only one single solid color, especially to create depth. I started with appling a layer of Gesso to the pages. To bring some texture in, I made a doily with the Prima Doily stencil and Embossing Paste.



I'm having a doiley thing at the moment. I like those doilies, they are so fun! And in white they are stunning as well. Both The Note to Self and Documented for the Record Thinlits Sizzix are quite difficult to get the die cuts out of, because there are no  punch holes in them. The trick to get them out is to use waxpaper in between the die and the paper. That really helps!

Oh how cool... you've really taken this challenge head on and blown it out of the water with your white on white pages. Amazing work - and I think the photos are pretty darn good too!
