Art Journal Page 7

Happy Birthday to my lovely son Milo

and Happy Independence Day to all my lovely USA friends!!

My journal page sort of evolved as it went along.

I had an idea in my head to use bubbles in the sky but as I went along

it turned into a space theme nearly lol.

But then that's the fun of doing an art journal.

I started by punching circles in various sizes and inking them.

I used all the new In Colours and just sponged a few in each colour.

I used a bubble die for the small white circles which worked perfectly

as they came in various little sizes.

I stuck the circles in place then went around with the stencil,

drawing the little circles with a fine line pen.

I left an area with just some left over ink sponged on it

and proceeded to colour in all the areas with night of navy blend pen.

YES it took ages but it was so relaxing!!

I used lots of stamps from various stamp sets for the words.

I wanted the page to show how the darkness can be lightened

with precious memories, happy thoughts and positive feelings

and I'm more than happy with my page.

I hope you like it too.
