Art journal page - Ready to go

Hi and welcome :0) This is ca  6" x 8" (cca 15 x 20 cm) page. 

I love this new Honey Bee Air Mail 3D embossing folder. I wanted to use it in my journal as soon as possible and don´t cover it much and I like the outcome a lot :0) 

I used Tim Holtz´s Distress inks to make a splattered background, stamped some text and postal stamps over it and embossed it. I enhanced the raised areas with the same inks to make them darker and then applied a layer of white ink over it. It created a beautiful effect. I framed the page when I glued it on another page colored with the same inks and stamped with the same stamps I used before. My focal images are from Maremi´s small art´s beautiful collage books I bought on Amazon. 

Thank you for your visit, feel free to leave me a comment and have a very nice day :0)

Art journal page - What seems ordinary...

Hi and welcome back. Today I have a new 8 x 9 inches (cca 20x22 cm) art journal page.

I played with a lovely Autumn splendor die from Honey Bee Stamps, bright colours of Dylusions sprays, gold spray and an older witch die from Tim Holtz. This autumn background die is so beatiful itself ant the colours so bright that it was very difficult to pair it with anyting else. But I did and I think I like the outcome :0) For the witch I used silver glitter paper and covered it with black alcohol ink and later with black PITT artist brush pen, so the black is darker but stil shiny.

This page is also my post for Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge "Not a card".

Thank you for your visit and see you next time :0)

Art journal page - I saw my soul in the mirror

Hi and welcome :0) This is my 6.5"x 6.5"  (ca. 16,5 x 16,5 cm) art journal page for SimonSaysStamps Monday challenge "Four Legged Friends".

I was inspired by the words of one song I heard recently and this is an idea that came to my mind - do you  also feel this way sometimes? :0) 

I used Peacock feathers and Salvaged patina Distress inks and Salvaged patina Distress oxide for my bacground together with Honey Bee leaves stencil. My brown colours are a combination of Wild honey, Tea dye and Black soot Distress inks and Mustard seed and Fossillized amber for my yellows. I found these funny stamps from Katzelkraft and very nice old frame die from Spellbinders. Curtain is a stamp from LaBlanche.  

Thank you for your visit and see you next time :0)
