As many of you know I enjoy painting my own background papers to use in collage, scrapbooking, cardmaking, or just for the fun of painting these crazy papers. How could you not love doing these, the creative freedom that you experience is so liberating. It is such a wonderful right brained activity, many of you enjoy Zentangle and I do too, however I find this to be just as creatively stimulating as many of you do with the "Zen" of Zentangle. In fact I often allow my students to "play" with paint when we are exploring color or just have some free painting time. They love it and do not even realize that in their "play" they are learning such valuable color theory lessons.
These two orange papers remind me of Halloween and I plan to use them as a background papers for a few new Whimsy Stamps www.whimsystamps.com that I just received. I love the play of yellow, orange, white, red, and a little turquoise thrown in to add a little compliment to the layers.
