I cut lots of 1 inch squares from yesterdays newspaper and glued them to my canvas covering all the sides too. I then inked all over - I followed this by using a contrasting ink through sequin waste. I did some stamping on to tissue and added these. I sanded and covered some slide mounts with Faber granite paint and when dry highlighted the cracks with black ink - I used these frames to attach my acetate images (Crafty Individuals) to my canvas. I finished the whole thing off with a piece from a broken piece of jewellery which I had distressed with paints. This is my entry for the Lotstodo Challenge this week.
