I have two. One is obvious, can you guess the other? After you view the photo I will tell you my second G. :)

G is for Green and Gesso! I took crumpled celophane and tapped it into gesso then stamped all over the panel. After it was dry I used TH Bundled Sage distress stain. For the purple panel, I painted it with Lavender paint, after it was dry I painted over the top of a stencil with the brayer. When I lifted the stencil off the paper I noticed that the design only showed up in spots so I took the brayer and lightly went over the entire panel, then back again with the stencil randomly in spots.
