This month Michelle Ward, over at GPP Street Team, is challenging us to "cut or rip lines of text from magazines. Apply it to your page to create a message or use as an abstract background." Another fun challenge.
Some of those who read my post about grids, applauded my use of baggies to sort my paper scraps into colours. Well, I have another baggy for bits of text I've cut out. Yeah, I'm a serious organizer.
For this page I chose text on white backgrounds, glued it down with gel medium and then stamped over it all using foam stamps and red acrylic paint.
I encourage you to follow this link and give it a try!

I like your stamped circles and hearts over the text, very effective.
Very interesting technique Susan. As for the baggies and organization, want to come to my house and practice. LOL
This is great!!! The red really makes the whole page "pop".
I like your red stamps over your text!
Susan - I can't stand how organized you are! Love the horizontal layout of text, and as eveyone has said, those red bits make for a catchy page. Thanks for sharing with the team!
Great design, very graphic.Did you also use some gesso?
Lovely page! I love to stamp with acrylics too - sometimes it looks almost smeared and nobody can tell if it was ment to be...The red here though, doesn't seam to smear and it really looks nice with the black and white!
I wish I was as organised as you - I do try, but I'm just not ;-) Great page, the colours work so well.
I LOVE the red stamping over the text!
Love the effect of the hearts on your text. Great text page!
Beautiful, love your red stamps ! I so envy you on being organised, must be cool to just grab what you need ;-)
Really fun page! I like the use of the red stamps to bring it altogether.
That just about looks like a professionally designed 'bought' paper - mean this as a compliment! Red, white and black can't be beat.
