Hello and welcome to my blog where I share my
ARTSY CREATIONS
I have been keeping art journals for many years
But never really shared them as I did not know if they would be of interest
to others.
I love Affirmations and choose one for each page of my journal .
Every day of your LIFE
is a page of your HISTORY
I usually create my pages separately and then add them to my journal
This way I have more fun with my paints and inks without worrying about spoiling
my journal with messy paint runs and drips ..
I really adore using Tim Holtz distress inks and stains
I find they are so easy to use and are easily wiped off with a wet wipe, if I apply too much .
I have finished this page with crackle paint to give a rich deep sheen and crackle effect.
lots of layering with corrugated cardboard , paper, metal embellies and chipboard
and washi tape .
inks, paint, stains and crackle paint .
Wow, how amazing! You are the queen of grunge!

ReplyDeleteI don't think that there is anything or any style around that you couldn't make look amazing. I love the grungy/vintagey look of this art journal page. It is just rich and warm. Love it and you rocked it.

Wow, gorgeous. I'd love to have a go at this. I'm imterested to see that you add your pages to your journal later. Do you make your own journal? Any tips on how?
ReplyDeleteHad to pop over from Marjie's to say how glorious this is - stunning colours and layers... just perfect!
