So I was hoking about some boxes in my craft room
for a certain Hunkydory card kit and came across
some of these gorgeous wee fairy decoupage sheets.
They are from Reddy Creative Cards.
I must have them for absolute years!!
So I decided to make an art journal page using one of them.
There is a challenge for art journals and their
theme is trees so that is where I started.
I added scraps of paper to my page all
around the outer edge.
I then covered it in a coat of gesso.
I then added some pink gelato and acrylic
paint to get some colour.
The trees were made using a stencil (SU)
of tree trunks in brown ink in the centre.
I then sponged some light green and dark green
acrylic paints to create the tree top.
I then stamped some leaves over the top of that
using a stamp set called Life is Beautiful (SU).
Next I used some fun flock to create a mossy bottom
and added some punched flowers and
pearlized enamel effects for the centres.
Next I popped out the little angel
and stuck her in place.
I highlighted some areas with my black pen.
I added the wording which I got from
Willowing Arts.
At this stage I should have left it but NOOOOO!
I decided to cover the corner in yellow paper
to look like a sunshine.
I stamped the sentiment from the
Life is Beautiful stamp set (SU)
and finally finished by splattering some gold ink
and adding some
white acrylic paint around the edges.
Then when dry I added some faux stitching.
It was very therapeutic and fun but my
desk was a complete and utter mess lol.
I would like to enter this into
