Express Yourself

Express Yourself  

              by DT Ann

ART Journals are a great way of both experimenting & expressing yourself...

I thought I'd share a page I created using the Mandala Inkables, I can't promise I won't go back to it at some point, that's the beauty of journalling!

I used:

Mandala 2 & 5

D'Inkables Regular Dots

Texture Circles Stamps

Creativity Words

Stitched Boarders

JOURNAL

Distress Oxides

Versafine Clair

Black Posca

Paint

Brayer

Available at https://www.beecrafty.net/

I used a page from my journal & with a brayer gently built up colour on the textured side of the page. I used a burnt orangey/yellow & terracotta coloured paints. 

Then I pressed a pale blue paint through the Mandala 2 D'Inkable, use a sponge or stencil brush whichever you prefer & remembered to use the rule of three ...

 

Using the same method I added some terracotta through Mandala 5 on top of Mandala 2, and then using just the edge in 3 different spaces...

When the paint had dried I added some Textured Circles using Crackling Bonfire & spiced Marmalade Distress Oxides. Then using a black Posca pen I added some doodles...

I decided to add some black paint around the edges too...

and some blue paint through the Regular Dots D'Inkable.

To finish I added the word EXPRESSION & underlined it with a stamp from the Stitched Boarders..

As I said I may go back yet, its back in my journal for now....

Thanks for stopping by... Ann x
