Journal Butterflies

Journal Butterflies 
By Ann 


We all get butterflies from time to time, starting a journal page can do just that to me! I hope these blogs help you to start creating, even if you end up doing something different ! 


Paint: Dylusions Fresh Lime, Periwinkle Blue & Lemon Zest.

Texture Paste

Stamps: Doodle Art Butterfly

Inkables: 6x6 Scales

Big Ones: Circles 1

DInkables: Set 7 & Set 2

Scribble Sticks 

Gelly Roll Moonlight Pens (white pen in pack)

Wordy Stickers set 1

Inks : Hero Arts & Versafine Clair Nocturne

Spread some Dylusions, Fresh Lime paint with a little water over your journal page, leaving some white space…


Add some Periwinkle Blue, with a little water… 


Use the small scales DInkable to soften the Periwinkle Blue into the lime …. 


I felt my page needed another colour & added some Lemon Zest…


Continue to soften & integrate the colours using the dots DInkables  & the blue… 


Dry the page, then spread some texture paste through the Circles 1 Big One … 


Leave the paste to dry. 
 Stamp 3 Doodle Art Butterflies onto a separate piece of paper with Versafine Clair Nocturne… 

I used a combination of watercolours & Scribble Sticks to colour the butterflies, sadly I forgot to take a photo! 

Once the texture paste has dried, use white & yellow Gelly Roll pens through the large Scales & the Dots, Inkables… 



To add a little black into the background I added the doodle line ( from stamp set) with some Hero Arts Ink… 


To finish decide where to place the butterflies. Scrunch up some black thread & glue the butterflies with a bit of thread under each one… 


Find a sentiment from the Wordy Stickers, glue to a slightly larger piece of black paper to frame it, add to your page… 


Add some dots & dashes with black & white Posca pens… 




Thank you for stopping by… Ann xxx
