Hello!
This week on the Bee Crafty blog I am sharing an art journal spread that I have made in the white Dina Wakley journal...
1) I started by adding some of the tea stained engineering washi tape along the centre of the pages then in places across the spread. I used the distress collage medium to make sure it stayed stuck down. Once it was dry I added a layer of clear gesso...
2) Next I added distress oxide sprays, making sure to dry between each colour. I used Rusty Hinge, Vintage Photo and Crushed Olive...
3) As there was a layer of gesso under the sprays I was then able to lift some of the ink back off to create a lighter look. I also placed the Metal Alpha stencil onto each page and sprayed through with water to get a faint ghosted effect...
4) To create some extra light areas I used the same stencil with white gesso through it...
5) Next I used the archival distress inks in Vintage Photo, Ground Espresso, Hickory Smoke and Peeled paint with the Ledger and Film Strip stamp sets to add interest to the background...
6) After that I stamped out some of the elements from the same stamp sets plus a sentiment from Ticker Tape 2 in ground Espresso then blended on some Vintage Photo distress ink...
7) Finally I used glue gel to attach the elements to the spread with some black thread added beneath to help break up the elements from the background...
Here are links to the products used...
Thank you for looking and happy crafting!
