Splat!

 

I'm once again at Art Journal Journey joining our host Mia who can be found at Craftartista.  Her theme this month is Make your own background.

I'm sure you can see where (and how) I got the title.  Detail images are below.

 

  I had some old instant coffee that had gotten wet.  I dug the "sludge" out of the jar using a spoon.

 

  Using the straw, I blew into it over the various blobs of coffee.

 

  I had to remember to keep rotating the paper so the blobs were distributed.  Some of the coffee blobs overlapped each other.  I tried to wipe up the excess coffee using a paper (kitchen) towel.

Splat was created using a TH paper doll, the above background, and a computer generated word I outlined in brown pigment ink.

Bleubeard and I look forward to seeing you and your handmade backgrounds soon at Art Journal Journey.
