Believe In Yourself Art Journal

Hello all

I am back with another mixed media journal page for the Susan K Weckesser team. The theme on the blog this month is mixed media and one of my favorite themes. 

I started off by applying modeling paste around the page using a stencil and then i spritzed DecoArt Media Misters on top. I spritzed water over to dilute the colors.

Next i added more colors using acrylic paint which i painted on in blocks of color. I then used the In Circle Me stamp to add a textured layer to the background. I used a stencil with black modeling paste for the quote and writing. I let it all dry and then added another layer of stencils.

I used the A Little Grunge Love stamp set and used the Clearsnap Color Pop Mini inks to color them with. I glued them down and once dry i went over the top with a stencil to create a textured effect.

I used the A Little Bit Washi stamps and stamped them on to tissue paper. I learned this trick of Susan and this way you can position the images before gluing them down.

Thank you for visiting 

Live in full Color- Mini by Shilpa

Hello Everyone, Shilpa here,

I've created this cute little mini for my daughter as gift :-)

I've used many design papers from Susan and Grunge love stamp set.

This lovely circle is cut out from "Live in color" Tags. I applied bit of distress inks with water on it and added enamel dots.

For this page, I painted background randomly with Ripe persimmon distress ink and water. Next I've cut out the blue flower from  "Live in Color" paper and on that stamped heart cut out shape.

here are other pages with same techniques and layering.

 Susan has designed these awesome mixed media papers, they are great for these kinda projects. 

Hope you got inspired today.

Thanks so much stopping by.

Love You - Card by Shilpa

Hello Everyone,

Shilpa here

Valentine's day is around the corner, so here is the card I made for special someone!

this is quick and easy card with texture and stamping!

I dry embossed the blue card stock paper through embossing folder.

Next I layered another green design paper with torn edges for interest. On white card, I stamped a heart from "Littele Grunge Love" stamp set and pink archival ink.

leaves and flourishes are diecuts, which I colored with peacock feather distress paint. Finally added the sticker sentiment.

Hope you liked this card and got inspired.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
