As many of you know, I like to mix things up a bit, challenge myself and try out different techniques. Well, I think it is safe to say that this layout I created for Magenta really had me stepping outside of my regular preferred styles.
I call it pop art grunge. There is stamping, gessoing, sanding, plastic bag and wrap use, inking, distressing, painting, and I even improvised a chevron stamp with a leftover corner covering foam from a picture frame packaging by mitering the foam strip and stapling it together. A how-to can be found on the Magenta Blog.

I love it, you did awesome for being out of your comfort zone! I'm gonna have to try your trick for the chevron stamp. Very very cool!
