Good morning everyone, today I would like to share not one but two projects that I have created for this months AALL & Create challenge.
I recently received as a gift a small Dylusions art journal and couldnt wait to use it. Because it is small in size (8 x 5) I have decided to create two different pages.
My first page I created was using the AALL & Create Stamp # 81 by Olga Heldwein. I love anything butterfly so had to get this one! I was that excited that I forgot to do step by step photos! I did remember on my second page!
I have used Paper Artsy Fresco Paints - China, Smurf and Blue Oyster.
I have stamped the butterfly image onto the art journal as well as a second piece of cardstock. I then coloured in the butterflies with Vivid Paint and fussy cut them out. The middle butterfly I also covered with Dimensional Magic. I have then added a saying that I loved on the left and larger writing on the right. Some doodling and my page was complete - I think I was having a bold and bright day!
My second page I have created is using the stamp #7 by Bipasha BK
I began by painting the page with Dina Wakely paints - Cheddar, Ruby & Sedona
Blending them with a wet wipe as I went
I have then stamped all over the page with the saying stamp in the set in a grey - I have used the second generation stamping method (stamp the first image onto a scrap of paper and then stamp onto the journal without re-inking the stamp) as I was looking for a very "background" look
I have stamped the feathers onto a separate piece of card stock using a purple stamp pad and fussy cut them out - I wanted some dark and some light so used the same technique - second generation stamping.
I have then stamped my head image directly onto the art journal page and adhered the feathers underneath using gel medium. Once dry I have gone around the edges with a watercolour pencil.
I have encircled the head with the words in the stamp pack and then hand written a quote -
I have used the saying that I found on the internet as I think this often applies to me LOL
I have also added a stripe of washi tape down the centre to cover the blue paint from the page beside, and inked the edges with Black Distress Crayon.
Here are some close ups - and at the bottom of the blog I have linked the products used to the Scrap Matrix Store.
