I was kind of dreading the masking tape MMJ adventure, but I totally love it and will be doing it a bunch in the future. I love, love, love it!
So this is the start of a ring journal I am making for everyone I am inviting to my birthday party this year. I am doing 5x6 cardboard panels with MMJ techniques on one side with a picture and the other side is my journaling with basically a letter to them telling them why I am proud of them and love them and how meaningful they have made my life.
Base is Amazon box then:
*White Gesso
*Then masking tap scrunched up (check out MMJ05 - link below)
*drywall tape
*More gesso and some crackle medium to cover the areas where drywall tape meets masking tape (should have done more but oh well)
*Dylusions spray and water
*Watercolor and water
*White gesso with dry brush
*gold paint with dry brush on any part sticking up
*papers and banner
*die cut wreath and foliage (thanks Shelly!)
*more gesso and gold beads
*print picture and top it up
So much fun and she will love it (for 5 minutes anyway).
Picture is from this weekend when we went wine tasting with 6 of her best friends - a truly wonderful birthday celebration for her 30tth birthday.

Fantastic MMJ using the masking tape. Love how you have described each step and your daughter is gorgeous like you.
Love the brushes of gold and tiny beads. Very inspired to try this now.
