Challenge me Happy #46 - Water

  Hello everybody! This is my entry for the Challenge #46  at Challenge me Happy, where the theme is WATER! Since the summer is almost here and the weather is getting warmer, I chose my layout to be ispired by the sea and the joy of playing with the waves! The girl in the photo is my favorite young cousin Marina, ( ..my personal scrapbooking model : p) whose name means "  from the sea", and I think that the camera really caught her at the right moment!!

Water layout

Lace , decorative branches, gears and pearls with looooots of gel medium an gesso

I painted the composition with my tattered angel mists using a brush and added some sand here end there. The sand was gathered from a nearby beach and painted blue with my acrylics.

I used aquarelle paper and water colours for the background and gave a try on the "salt technique" which I found HERE.

 I tried some mixed media techniques for the first time on this one ... I 'll try to improve myself though, I promise!

Thank you very very much for visiting!
