The Blank Page Muse Inspiring Creativity Art Journal Pages

Hello all

I am back with a quick idea using the one of the new stamps released this month. This gorgeous background stamp is called Dare to Dream and i also used the Scribble Daisy Background stamp both of these are available in May's releases. 

Paint the pages with gesso to stop the paint bleeding through to the page.

Paint the pages with a pale yellow acrylic paint and then allow to slightly dry before adding a light orange acrylic paint over the top, blend the colours a little before drying off fully.

Stamp the Scribble Daisy Collage Background stamp over the pages in embossing ink. The background does not have to come out perfect and it adds to the grungy look.

Sprinkle on orange embossing powder and once it has melted, allow to fully set before adding the Dare to Dream stamp.

Colour in sections with watercolour paints and once dry, take the Creativity word stamp and randomly stamp bits of it onto the pages. Finish off the page by adding a few sentiments.

The Blank Page Muse Amethyst Druzy Flower Tag

Hi all

I have a mixed media tag to  share today  using stamps by The Blank Page Muse. I created a druzy effect which i will show you how to recreate bellow.

Spray a blank tag with purple mist sprays and then use a varity of purple coloured inks to stamp randomly  around the tag. Aplly a stencil  and leave to dry.

Stamp out the flowers on to card that has been sprayed over with mist sprays. Cut them out and add glue to the centers of the larger flowers. Sprinkle with glitter and then seal with crackle glaze. This will take a few hours to set before you can add them to the tag.

Add burlap and a die-cut background to thecenter of the stamp. I buy white burlap and either paint or ink it to match the colour scheme. Decorate with gems and sequins.

Once the crackle glaze has set you should get this faux druzy effect.
