Little Things

[Challenge win: Winner at 613 Avenue Create challenge]

I’m delighted to be a guest designer at A Bit More Time To Craft Challenge today!

Lozzy, the host of this challenge, creates beautiful digi-papers, and I used one of her earlier digi-paper sets, Dream Chic, for my art journal spread.

---

I tore the digi-paper almost along its diagonal, and adhered it along opposite corners of my journal. I then added strokes of acrylics paint to blend the paper with the ‘plain’ center.

I used a stencil with some modeling paste to create texture diagonally across my spread. After it dried, I added some acrylic paint with water spritzing, so it settles down along the valleys of the texture. I also applied a bit of metallic wax on the raised portions of the texture, and lightly stamped some additional texture on the background.

On a different piece of paper, I stamped some insects using various stamps and archival ink, and used watercolor pencils (and a water brush pen) to color them. I first added some acrylics splatters to the spread, then fussy-cut these insects and pasted them over the background.

For the quote, I used stamps with dye inks, and fussy-cut the rectangles. After pasting the quote strips over the spread, I outlined them with a multiliner. Ta da!
