After protecting my page with gesso as usual, I started with alphabet stickers. I first stuck them to my clothes & then put them in place on the page (I didn't want them so sticky that I couldn't get them back off!). In the same way, I used some rectangular stickers to cover the text I wanted to highlight. Then I took 3 colors of distress ink (Broken China, Worn Lipstick, and Dusty Concord) and applied over the whole page using round sponge applicators. When the whole page was covered with color, I removed the stickers.
I decided to outline the words so they would stand out better. I used colored pencils for this. The word "ETERNAL" just wasn't very visible, so I colored the whole with colored pencils & outlined it with a fine black pen.
