Hello, it´s my turn to share a. project over at Rubber Dance blog again. Today I am sharing a page from my art journal that started from a mark making play and ended up being a bright spring themed page. I used the Dotted 1, Organic 4 and Marks 3 stencils and the Mix It Up 5 stamp set to create the page. I also added previously made collage fodder bits done with Doodle Flowers 2 and Butterflies and Moths stamp sets.
This is how my creating process went. I always have a journal close to me, when creating on other projects. That way I can wipe and add random layers to my journal with residue paints, inks and pastes. In the first photo you can see I added some residue pink paint, then some black mark making to the journal page. Next I mixed some modeling paste with neon pink and yellow paint and sky blue paint together and applied those onto the background thru the previously mentioned stencils. I love to tint my white modeling paste with acrylic paints to create different colors.
While the paste was drying, I took a pink tag and stamped some Distress Oxide Ink (kitsch flamingo) with one of the Mix It Up 5 stamp set stamps. Then I grabbed a small piece of residue gelli printed paper, stamped with the same set and black ink some images onto the piece and adhered it onto the tag. After that I arranged a cluster of leaves and flowers to the tag and cut off any residue along the edges.
After that I adhered the tag onto the journal page, created a sentiment with sticker and paper alphas and added some Gloss Spray splatters for finishing touches (Medieval).
Have you tried creating your own tinted modeling pastes? It´s a fun way to add some interest to any project (journal, wall art, card background). It also adds a nice texture and depth to a project. Wishing you a fun time playing with stencils and modeling paste!! If you missed how the fodder was done, you can watch the videos and the photo tutorial here, here and here.
Happy creating!
