DecoArt Blogger Outreach with Blank Page Muse Stamps

Hello all

It's has been a while since i blogged and to be honest i did plan to focus mainly on Instagram but the last 10 months of my life have been crazy starting with changes to my work hours and location, which are back to normal now but i am struggling to get back into things. Any way i have been mainly art journaling because i have had to give up half my craft room for our online business so i have no room for the chunky projects anymore. I did have a good clear out which has helped but i am still finding stuff lol. 

So here is my latest art journal. I started by stamping the background stamps on first and then adding the DecoArt mist sprays. The Blank Page Muse has all these new stamps which are great for us mixed media people. I will add the links at the bottom for you to take a look.

I hope everyone is ok today? The world is in absolute chaos and the only thing we can do is stay indoors and create.

Hellgnome's Death Digis Great Space Adventure Art Journal

Hello all

I have a new mixed media art journal layout to share with you. I have gone for a space theme so three guess which Sci Fi movie this is a nod too.

The background is painted black first and then i blended in blue tones. Then i added a bit of magenta to the edges to make it look a bit more like space. I then added SprinkleIt to the center of the pages, this stuff is great as it adds a crunchy texture and it shimmers. I finished off the background by flicking white paint over the top so it looks like stars.

The images have been coloured in with marker pens.

Emerald Creek Crafts Motivation Fairy Art Journal Page

Hello all

I am back with another project for Emerald Creek Crafts this month. As some of you may know, i started my weight loss journey in March last year and to date i have lost 2st 2lb. However sometimes the weight does not come off for a few weeks and it is frustrating. So i created the motivation fairy as part of my motivation art journal. I thought over the next few weeks i could create a page to put in the folder to keep me going lol.

Product list

Baked Textures Rocky Road 

Magical Mysteries Dragons Egg

Ranger Archival Inks  Vibrant Fuchsia 

StencilGirl (R) 4 x 4 Screw Heads Mini

I started off by using a StencilGirl (R) mask to add heavy gel medium to the page and then i sprinkled on Rocky Road Embossing Powder. It made me crave a Rocky Road bar so i switched to Dragons Egg for the next layer.

Then i added layers of Lindy's Magicals and let it all dry.

I added the stamps to the background and embossed them with Dragons Egg Embossing Powder.

I printed off a sheet of paper dolls and just cut out the pieces, Then arranged them on the page and glued them down. I then added little quotes to finish the page.

The Blank Page Muse Dare Art Journal

Hello all

I have a mixed media art journal page to share today and there is a tutorial for you to follow.

The Blank Page Muse Stamps Chain Link Pattern Background Stamps

The Blank Page Muse Stamps Wildflower Yikes 

The Blank Page Muse Stamps Water Drops Background 

The Blank Page Muse Art Journal Words,Swirls and Curves

The Blank Page Muse Distressed Chain Link Background Stamps

Ranger Archival Inks

Acrylic Paint

Apply acrylic paints to the page and leave a little white space.

Stamp a few texture stamps around the edge.

Add the chain link texture along the edges but apply ink to a larger area so it over laps a little.

Add the water droplets texture at random along with a few swirls.

Stamp out the vines and skulls onto card stock using different coloured inks and cut them out.

Stamp them again onto the sections of the page you would like to glue them, this is so you don't have to cut out the small intricate parts. Go over the fine details with matching marker pens to highlight the detailed parts.

Cut out the skull and glue them onto the stems, You can add any small image to these so you could use flowers if you don't like the skulls.

Finish with a quote
