Mark Making with Lisa Amiet

Hello all! 

It's Lisa here on the blog today, 

to share an art journal page, 

inspired by this month's challenge

This is what I have come up with

So I have first started by adding some colour to my page. 

I have used the 'Dina Walkey Acrylics in Lemon, Blush, Turquoise & Eggplant'.

I have also used some 'Paper Artsy Fresco Finish Paints in Granny Smith'

I have smeared them thinly across my page. 

I have scratched in some patterns to the wet paint. 

I have then used the '7 Dots Studio Droplets Stencil'

and 'Ranger Archival Ink in Black' to stencil droplets onto my page. 

I have then used an assortment of stamps to stamp out some florals and foliage, 

such as the 'Carabelle Studio Scribbled Leafs and Textured Circles',

 to build the flowers and foliage.

I have added more on my background with the 'Paper Artsy ETS02' stamps, and the

'7 Dots Studio Northern Night Stamps'

Next, I have started some doodling. I have added some grass to the bottom of my page.

I have added some more doodling to the sides. 

This is not what I was aiming for, 

a few things didn't work for me on the day, but 

I learned a few new things. 

I hope you have fun with this challenge, and make your mark on it.

Until next time!!

Lisa

'Count your Rainbows' by Lisa Amiet

Hello!

It's Lisa here today to share a layout I have created. 

I am in love with this month's challenge mood board,

I have created this with these colours in mind.

I have started with a white piece of cardstock for my base. 

I have sealed this with 'Liquitex White Gesso'.

I have then used some of my 

'Dylusions Inks' in 'Postbox Red', 'Lemon Zest' and 

'Squeezed Orange'. 

I have dried this with a heat gun, moving it around as it dries. 

I have also added in a little 'Distress Oxide Spray - Picked Raspberry'.

I have then used my '7 Dots Studio Paint Chips Hatched Stencil' 

and baby wipes to remove a small amount of colour in the stencil areas.   

I have then used the same stencil and 'Finnabair's Light Paste' to stencil onto my page.

I love how the light paste is able to show some of the colour under it. 

I have then added in some stamping, I have used my '7 Dots Studio Hazy Days Clear Stamps' and

'7 Dots Studio Paint Chips Clear Stamps' along with 'Distress Ink Pad - Picked Raspberry'

and my trusty 'Ranger Archival Ink - Black', to stamp randomly over my base page. 

I have then adhered pieces of the '7 Dots Studio Papers - Underpaper' & 'Razzleberry'.

I have also adhered pieces of the 'Paint Chips Element Stickers' 

and the 'Paint Chips Die Cut Elements'.

I have then added some pieces of 'Paint Chips Glaze' paper, 

again layered with some of the 'Paint Chips Element Stickers' 

I have then used some of the 'Embossed Lace Paper - Duchese',

that I have scrunched up and layered 2 pieces, behind my photo matt.

I have used a piece of the 'Paint Chips - Clover' paper to matt my photo. 

I have then added some more of the 'Paint Chips Die Cut Elements' & 'Paint Chips Word Stickers' on my page. 

To finish I have added one of the 'Dyan Reaveley's Dyslusions Creative Dyary Back Chats' stickers and some of the Finnabairs 'Mechanicals Metal Embellishments - Stars',

scattered over my page. 

I hope that you like what I have created and

that you get a chance to play along with the challenge. 

Until next time!

'A Head Full of Fears' by Lisa Amiet

Hello all!

It's Lisa here today to share some inspiration with you.

For this month's challenge,

 we have a gorgeous mood board for you to play with 

I have created an Art Journal Page in my

'Dylusions Creative Journal - Large'

I have first started with a coat of 'Liquitex White Gesso', 

to seal my page for what's to come.

I have then adhered some ripped strips of 

'Dina Wakley Media Collage Papers Background'

I have then used the 'Finnabair Grungy Grid' stencil and 'Finnabair Light Paste',

to stencil randomly over my page, for some texture.

I have then adhered some gauze and started to add some colour with 

'Lindy's Starburst Spray - Clam Bake Beige'

Seriously, this is my most used colour of spray ever!

I love the earthy tones it adds. 

I have then started to add some more colours with my

'Distress Oxide Sprays' in

'Spiced Marmalade', and then 'Picked Raspberry'.

I have added some water and dried it with a heat gun, 

while still moving the liquid around on my page. 

I have then brought out some stamps,

'7 Dots Studio Northern Lights Clear Stamps' 

& '7 Dots Studio Paint Chips Clear Stamps.

These are great for added depth and texture to your page. 

With them, I have used my 'Distress Ink Pads',

in 'Black Soot', 'Spiced Marmalade' 

& 'Picked Raspberry'. 

I have then added some of my

'Art by Marlene Collage Papers #4', torn into pieces

and adhered to my page.

To finish my page I have cut out the quote from 

'Dina Wakley Media Collage Word Pack',

and adhered it on my page. 

Some splashes of 'Dylusions Ink Spray' in 

'Black Marble' is the perfect finishing touch. 

I am loving the texture and colours on this page. 

I also LOVE this quote. 

So very true! 

I really hope that you like what I have created, 

and that you will get a chance to play along this month.

Until next time!

Lisa
