Oh so lovely

Hello everyone,

For today's project I have made an art journal spread. I kept it simple this time because sometimes less is more and I love how it turned out.


I had one piece of chipboard from the Flourishes Two set left and thought it would be nice to turn it into a swing for this little girl. I didn't alter the chipboard this time but left it natural. I tied some string on either side to represent her swing ropes. 
The background was made with a piece of pattern paper which I found in my stash. I added some acrylic paint around the edges and behind the girl and also some stamping and doodling. The sentiment was actually the name of the pattern paper, it was printed on the bottom edge and I just cut it off because i thought it suited her. 




I have used this set of chipboards:


You will find them HERE

mixed media art journal page showcasing chipboard and stencils by UmWowStudio by Lynne Forsythe

In my UmWowStudio stash I have a bag
of pieces parts from various chippies
I applied the pieces parts to my journal page.

Step One UmWowStudio Chipboard applied to art journal page

When dry, I applied a layer of medium through

wonky circle stencil by UmWowStudio

Step Two apply Light and Fluffy Modeling Paste through Wonky Circle Stencil

When dry I covered the whole page with
clear gesso.

Step Three apply Clear Gesso over entire art journal page

Then, I let the coloring begin.
I spritzed the entire page with mist.
Then, I used a pipette to drop
color onto the page.
Next, I mixed Prills with
a bit of medium and applied randomly
to the page.
Lastly, I splattered on a bit of white gesso.

Step Four applied Tattered Angel Glimmer Glaze and Glam White Gesso Gel Medium and Prills

I pulled out UmWowStudio
UmWowStudio Signature Series by Lynne Forsythe Small Chiprboard
 and SMALL IVY

Caution

Hello everyone,

It is my turn to show you some inspiration today ! I have made a 6"x6" art journal page on a piece of 7 Dots Studio paper from the Writer's block collection. I tried to make it a little fun !



First I painted the glasses.....


Next I used holographic (glittery) embossing powder and heat embossed the glasses...


It is nice and sparkly ! 


I used a vintage photo from Tim Holtz' lost relatives I think it is called. I cut her out... 


I added red paint around the edges and used a big lid to stamp circles around the head. I added some rubber stamping (VivaLasVegaStamps!) and put the whole thing together using some bits and pieces that were lying around. 




A close up....


and here she is again ! 

I used the Photo Booth Props today: 


You find them HERE

Thank you so much for stopping by today !

happy by Monika

Hello!

Today I'd like to share my newest art journal page. This small piece of mixed media is my daily reminder to not be complacent, to not limit myself to what I know and am comfortable with, but to look further afield, to be open minded, flexible to fully explore life.


I used two different stencil: Damask & Dahlia and some different chipboards. 




I hope you'll feel inspired ;)

I used:

Dahlia Stencil  Damask Stencil
