Diva friend Vicki also tried some spray-painted backgrounds that got me kick-started to try it :) And she did more here.
I started out brayering 2-3 colors on each of my large papers and embellsihed by spray-painting with stencils. On the last big paper I had some white spots and experimented with an India Ink resist to see what the effect would be with the spray-paints. It was tough to do on a larger scale, but I liked the overall effect and drama of it.

Fantastic backgrounds, Karen! I especially love the green ones. Some of the darker ones look like they would be perfect for your Dark RR. I am also blown away by your fabric pages! Great work!!

Karen, your spray painted sheets are all cool. I look forward to seeing what you do with them.I also enjoyed the veggie pages and the fabric work for the muse book. You've been very busy.

Very cool papers Karen. I see you used the big sequin waste. And I love the black webbing spray. Very dramatic effect. You slideshow is a great presentation.

Your papers came out great Karen! Did you use black webbing? I really need to get the hang of using that stuff. My webs look like blobs.
