Tuesday Talk

I'm super excited about today's post as I've created my first ever ART journal page! Wow! Such a very very different technique for me!

And here it is:


It was inspired and totally CASEd from STAMPlorations DT member Susanne Rose. I've followed her on instagram and watched her videos for a while now and totally adore her style, so I decided it was time to take the bull by the horns and give it a go!

   

As you can see I copied quite a lot of the elements from Susanne's page, but added some paste butterflies and outline feathers using ARTploration stencils. I also wanted to add some words and chose this STAMPloration sentiment because it described so perfectly how I felt at the beginning of this project. So scary to actually hand draw items on top of a prepared inky background - squeal!!!!


At the end I was really sad to stop and wanted to keep on adding extra bits, so I don't think this will be my last journey into ART Journalling. I've already got plans to make a book to hold all my pages - and I do love creating mini books and albums. It will be interesting to see how I progress and develop.

Supplies:
Stamps:STAMPlorarions, Noteworthy 2
Inks: Ranger distress, picked raspberry, mermaid lagoon, cracked pistachio, mustard seed; Memento, tuxedo black
Stencils: ARTplorations, Bubbles, Feathers & Arrows, Flutters & Splatters
Paste: Dreamweaver embossing paste
Pens: Sakura gelly roll, white; Uni-ball micro, black; Staedtler Fine Liners, pink, orange, turquoise, green


Thanks you so much for joining me today at the start of a new creative journey, i really appreciate your time

And keep crafting!

  1. Love the little butterflies. They look like they just want to fly off the page. Thank you for helping STAMPlorations celebrate 5 years.
