This is the second page that I have done and so far my least favorite... I had grand ideas and it just turned out very blah, but I figured I would show y'all anyway.
First I mixed a little dark blue watercolor paint with some black to make it even darker and painted the whole page with that. I used oil pastels to draw the snow man, first of all I am horrible at drawing and the snowman kind of ruined the page in my opinion. I used water color paper and put some white, yellow, green, and a tiny bit of blue then used a credit card to smear the colors together and cut out the moon shape.

I used watercolor paper and oil pastels to try and do some snowish colors then I used my finger to smear it around and used Mod Podge to paste it onto the page.
I also used water color paper and reds and a white and a credit card to smear it, then I cut out all the letters. I think the letters turned out really cute. I am very happy with them, even though it took a long time to cut out each letter. I also used some white paint to do little snowflake ish things. It was all going ok except for the snowman until I tried to put mod podge over the whole thing because I used so much thick paper. I tried to put the Mod Podge on thick and just kind of dab it on but I still ended up smearing a TON of the paint as you can see in the picture. So it all kind of looks gloopy and smeared. Oh well, now I know that they paint I used does not work well with Mod Podge and also to try and use thinner paper whenever I can so I don't have to use as much glue.
