Journal Page Inspiration
Where to start in your journal can be scary, the BeeCrafty team have been doing some fantastic ‘lives’ this week showing you different ways to start… here’s mine.
Acrylic Paint: Red, Fuchsia, Lemon & white or white gesso.. (You could use Dylusions Pillarbox Red, Bubblegum Pink, LemonDrop)
Stamps: Backgrounds, Textures & Boarders/ Creativity Words
D’Inkables: Reg Dots /Distressed Harlequin/ Stitches
Inkables: 6x6 Regular Dots
Stazon Black or Versafine Clair Nocturne
Black thread & an old credit card
Imagine a horizontal line across your page, with vertical lines running through it. The vertical lines are shorter in the middle & get longer towards the outside edge…
Start with one colour ( I used ruby ) & paint 3 vertical lines… Add a second colour (fuchsia) & a third (lemon) overlap each colour creating oranges & corals ( use a little water if needed) then dry …
Add, again vertically, some of the texture & boarder stamps in black ink ( Versafine, Versafine Clair & Stazon all seem to work on paint)
Dip an old credit card into some lemon paint (tap off the excess) & added a few lines in darker areas… & a few white gesso dots through the 6x6 Regular Dots Inkable. Leave to dry…
Chose two of the words from the Creativity Set & stamp in black ink onto your spare piece of paper. Cut around them, ink the edges & add some Moonlight Pen hi-lights…
Decide where you want your words on your page, glue with some collage gel, cut some thread & add under your “words” …
Remember it’s your journal, just enjoy the process, that’s what it’s there for… Thank you for stopping by… Ann xxx
