Today on the Buzzy Goings on at Bee Crafty blog I am sharing a step by step photo tutorial of how I created an art journal spread using some of the beautiful stamps that are part of this week's Wednesday Wow! and the gorgeous Rosie stamp...
* I started out on the first double page of a new 6" square art journal and painted on a strip of colour using 2 different shades of pink acrylic paint. Before this had a chance to dry too much I used the sunset d'inkable to wipe some of the paint away...
* Next I wanted to add another bright colour so used orange through the stars d'inkable...
* I wanted to add a contrasting colour to the orange so chose turquoise paint and although I tried really hard to choose a different stencil I was drawn back to the gorgeous circles d'inkable...
* To tone down the blue I added some buff coloured paint and white paint pen to the circles...
* For the stamping I wanted to echo the circle shapes so chose two of the stamps from the Texture, Film Strip and Circles set. I used the edge of the grungy stamp with teal archival ink and one of the circles with black archival ink...
* At this point I felt I needed some more white elements so added some splatters using watered down white paint. Then I stamped the film strip twice onto tissue paper and cut them out, they were then applied to the page using matte medium...
* Finally I created my focal points using Rosie from the Fashionettes (these stamps can be found at a reduced price in the discontinued stamps section!) and the words from Boy, Girl, Work in the Wordage stamps...
To create this spread I used the following products:
* D'Inkables - Sunset, Stars, Circles
* Art Stamps - Texture, Film Strip and Circles Set
* Wordage - Boy, Girl, Work
* Fashionettes - Rosie
* Archival Inkpads
The Wednesday Wow! will continue through until midnight on Sunday (17th March) and they have a fantastic discount on them! Also do check out the discontinued stamps section where there are great bargains to be had.
Thank you for looking and happy crafting!
