Dylusions art journal - Smile

Hi and welcome back :0) This page is in Dylusions classic ca. 8"x11" (cca 20 x 28 cm) journal again. 

I sprayed my background with Funky Fuchsia and Laidback Lilac Dylusion sprays and then with water through Marianne Designs constellation stencil. I found one of Dylusions heads and some legs and combined them with older bottle stamps and Tim Holtz's wings. Finally I added Stamperia Moon and Dylusions quote. Border is from Paper Artsy and key an older stamp from my stash. I colored the images with Dylusions Sprays in water brushes and Zig Clean color real brush markers and white and black acrylic markers. 

Thank you for your visit, have a nice Saturday and see you next time :0)

Art journal page - Hocus pocus

Hi and welcome back :0) It's been a looooong time since my last art post and I am very happy that I have a new  journal page in my Canson Mix Media middle art book - 17 x 25 cm (cca 6.5" x 10")

I just started with a simple background - combination of Distress ink pads and Distress Oxide ink pads in blue and brown shades. I added some stenciling on the edges and a then applied Finnabair's soft matte gel through a tea themed stencil from Paper Artsy all around the page. I love this feel-dimension and second photo shows  great shadows of this raised texture :0)

Used stamps are from Visible image and Impression Obsession, coloured with alcohol markers and for the quote I used Halloween chips from Tim Holtz and some washi tape from my stash. 

Thank you for your visit and hopefully see you soon again :0)

Creative week 10 - "Lady in Roses"

Hi, welcome back again :0)

Lady in Roses, today's art journal page is one layer stamped page from my Seawhite hardbound 7.5"x7.5" (ca. 20x20 cm) journal. I chose randomly a few stamps from my stash and combined them into the page. Because I mostly think a lot about my pages, most of them are "story telling" ones, this was a bit challenging, but mostly very freeing :0) The colour combination is also a bit unusual for me, but I like, but surprisingly for me, I like how they work together.

This page would be in my journal normally, but since last page - Golden Stars of California - I decided to enjoy more of the creative freedom and I unbounded my journal completely into a separate pages. It was sooooo relaxing... and this way I can use all the media I want without any boundaries :D Of course, I kept the cover of the journal and all the finished and unfinished pages are stored in it... so I think I can still call it " a journal book" .o)

So I used black Versamark and Ranger Dye ink, stamps from Paper Artsy and Chocolate baroque and Harlequin stencil from Tim Holtz as a background, together with Distress inks and markers, Caran D'Ache Neocolor II water soluble pastels  and Marvy Uchida markers for colouring. To enhance the look of the stained glass I also applied Distress micro glaze on the image of the lady, so the colours are brighter and "shine" a bit more from the rest of the page.

Enjoy the day and see you next time :0)
