Hello, I am here today with a page from my art journal. For this page I used the Organic 4, Sketchy Leaves 6 and Wheels stencils and plenty of stamps: Carved Collection 6, Mix It Up 6, Butterflies and Moths, Doodle Flowers 2 and from A to Z.

I started by placing the leaves and using them as masks with salvaged patina Distress Oxide Ink. I placed them onto the page and brushed the ink over them to the page repeatedly. After that I continued the background pattern with the Wheels stencil and the same ink tone, blending them into each other. Next I took the Organic 4 stencil and continued adding the same ink thru the stencil onto the page.

After finishing the inking, I took the iced spruce Distress Oxide Ink and stamped with Mix It Up 6 stamp set hand writing stamp over the white leaf areas very freely. Then I outlined the leaves with a black pen. This made them pop out of the background and I love the look it creates to the page. After that I used the number stamp from the same stamp set with aged mahogany Distress Oxide Ink to randomly stamp numbers next to the leaf patterns.

After that I took the peacock feathers Distress Oxide Ink tone and stamped a leaf pattern with the Carved Collection 6 stamp onto the page from top towards the bottom. I added golden pigment details with Gansai Tambi watercolors to them. Then I took some previously made leaf and collage fodder (see videos here and here) and added those on top of the stamped leaves overlappingly.

I also decorated the page with some yellow toned butterflies. These were also previously made collage fodder (with Butterflies and Moths stamp set) from my gelli printing sessions. For the text I used black ink and the word free from the Mix It Up 6 stamp set. The word fly is stamped with the A to Z set.

For finishing touches I also added some light written text stamping in the salvaged patina tone next to the pink flowers. It´s just a hue, but it adds some detail to the otherwise blank area. I also added some golden droplets and Gloss Spray in the tone blushing here and there.

For more details, here is the start-to-finish video for you to watch:

I really enjoy playing with stencils, creating collage fodder and then combining all these bits and pieces together in a project.

Happy crafting,

Hello, today I have an art journal page share for you. For this page I used the Doodle Flowers 2, Butterflies and Moths, Mix It Up 5, Mix It Up 7, Carved Collection 6, Stitching Borders and Mix It Up 4 stamp sets as well as Dotted 1 and Mini Textures 1 stencils.

I started by wiping residue ink from the Dotted 1 stencil onto the background and pressing another layer of residue brown ink from the Mini Textures 1 stencil around the first pattern. Next I grabbed some Neocolor II crayons and applied various yellow and light pink tones to the page. After that I grabbed a selection of pink, green, brown and turquoise Distress Oxide Inks and used the various stamps to add details and layers to the background.

I also painted some circles onto the page and filled those with golden pigment dots. Next I added contrast with a black stamp ink by adding stamped stars and numbers as well as stitching. I then clustered a few collage fodder pieces together (leaves and butterfly) and adhered those on place. I also had a few “diy vintage labels” left over, so I adhered a few onto the page. For finishing touches I added two sentiment stickers and created black areas with an acrylic marker and detailed those with a white gel pen.

This was a really fun one to make! Have you tried this idea of freely adding plenty of layers and seeing where the page takes you?

Mixed media tags with Distress Oxide Inks and Rubber Dance stamps and stencils

Hello, it´s my turn to share an inspirational project over at Rubber Dance blog today. I am up with a stenciled and stamped tag set this time. For these tags I´ve used some gelli printed DIY collage paper at the background and then added plenty of layers with Carved Collection 6 and Mix It Up 7 stamp sets as well as the Mini Marks 1 stencil.

I started with a gelli printed DIY collage paper that I created with the Round in Circles stamp set and a gelli plate. I adhered the paper onto a tag base and went from there, starting with the Mini Marks 1 stencil and “faded jeans” as well as “walnut stain” Distress Oxide Inks. Next I grabbed the Mix It Up 7 stamp set and stamped some numbers with “aged mahagony” stamp ink.

After that I stamped with the Carved Collection 6 a flower as my focal point and inked it with “cracked pistachio” and “fossilized amber”. I then went on and added some decor to the flowers with Posca pens and a Signo uni-ball white gel pen. After finishing the flowers, I added some more stamping to the tag backgrounds. This time with black ink. I used both the Carved Collection 6 as well as the Mix It Up 7 stamp sets here again.

Next I added some white Gloss Spray splatters for contrast and adhered the flowers on place using 3D-foam squares. I also drew some white gel pen patterns using the Stacked Ovals stencil for additional interest. Then I chose a sticker sentiment, added some rhinestones for decor and the tags were done. Here is a start-to-finish video on the steps:

Hope you get inspired to craft a little!
