Zigzag

Hello, it's alpha challenge time again.......and it's letter Z....oooh not many to choose from, I wanted to do zombie but I couldn't think how to so I opted for zigzag instead. Now I've had a bit of an ink blending mat weekend (more on that in my next post!) and so I knew I wanted to use that somehow. The page was already half yellow from yo yo on the previous page and coincidentally I also used some zigzag washi tape to outline the definition that I had also used on my yo yo page as well.

I picked out a stencil with zigzags on it and I picked out three distress inks picked raspberry, peacock feathers and evergreen bough and set to work creating zigzags all over the page using ink off the blending mat and some squares of cut n dry foam with the ink on them. Then I wrote on zigzag and highlighted it with a white gel pen and that was pretty much it, simple but effective.

  11. Lovely bright zig zags and the contrast with the black and white zig zag words and tape makes for a punchier page.Well done.
