 Art Journal -  Moments in Time

another design for Thompsons craft supplies

for this project i used.....

AB studio craft bundle 2 papers

fabrika Decoru metallic spray- sepia and gold

color glow - ruby

idea ology - vintage photobooth

i also used the stencil from the retreatkits.

from my stash i used...... black gesso, whits gesso, clear gesso and heavy paste.

firstly i painted my pages with the black gesso, i then lightly went over with the white.

i then fussy cut the black and white flowers and stuck them down with 3d gel and then stencilled on with the paste that i coloured with brow paint, it came out more of a pink!

i then fussy cut from the other sheets in the paper pack and layered them up using 3d foam pads and 3d gel.

lastly i painted over all the paper elements with the clear gesso, it just adds a bit of strength to the papers.

Together - Scrapbook Layout

Together - Scrapbook Layout

the first of my projects for Thompsons craft supplies

with lots of fussy cutting but quite a simple layout.

for this project i used......

AB Studio Crafters bundle 2

hobbilicious butterflies and drangonflies set 2

also from my stash i used some clear gesso, blackgesso, loose weave hessian and white acrylic paint.

firstly i went over my bas page with some clear gesso, i like to do this as for one thing it makes the page a bit stronger plus if i then decide to add some ink it allows it to move and be on top of the page rather than just sink where it hits!

it just happens that it had a little it of red ink on my paint brush that i didn't notice so it coloured the page a little but that was good it fitted in with the colour scheme really well.

i then cut a circle from my hessian and placed it in the middle of my page, i then did some fussy cutting, lots of fussy cutting lol

i painted my "together" title and my butterfly white, then placing the photo raised on 3d foam pads in the middle i then added my fussy cut pieces, title and butterfly and built the circle up until i was happy with the result.

i finished with some white splatters and black splatters.

love a bit of splattering!!
