Hey there!
Today, I'm going to show you how to make a WHITE WASH on your patterned papers without having to use water.
Simply use GESSO and a plastic card (just like a customer card you get at EVERY STORE).

Take a bit of gesso on your card.
Apply randomly on your patterned paper.
Spread as fast as you can, as gesso dries pretty fast.
Now, hold your card tight and try to get rid of the gesso : the white wash effect is here!
You can also use your plastic card as a stamp : simply put more gesso on your card and draw shapes with it!
Here's one of my layout made with the Continental July kit.
and here, a mini album I taught in France. I used my card to apply both gesso and acrylic paints (I used Yellow, Turquoise and Red for this album).
Have a wonderful day!

I have to admit the lamb would've been cute. I saw baby shower invites at a stationary store recently that had a lamb silhouette and said "We're expecting a little lamb!" and thought it was unique and adorable! :-(
T'es la meilleure !!! j'adore tes minis et tes techniques toujours originales et qui donnent un résultat très personnel, très TOI !!!

Thanks for the tutorial. Love the splashes of yellow in the mini album.
