Keep Some Room in Your Heart, for Bee Arty

Hi, thank you for joining me today.

My page today was started by using the Scrap FX Circle Template and an embossing pen.  I used this to trace a circle in the middle of my page and then heat embossed a circle.

I have then filled the middle of the circle with water and dropped in some Colour Artist Ink in Calypso, Lime and Mermaid.

A brush has been used to help move this around before heat drying the piece.

I wanted quite a dark paste so I mixed some Midnight Colour Shimmer Dust with some molding paste and have applied this to the edge of my circle using the Imagine Stencil.

On a separate piece of pager, I have layered it in water and dropped more of the Colour Artist Inks along with some Bubblegum Colour Spray.  I heat dried this, using a paper towel to blot up the excess.

Once dry, the page has been randomly stamped using the Geo Grunge Clear Stamp Set.

I have die cut lots of butterflies from this page using the Butterfly Effect Metal Die.  I also cut some butterflies with black card stock and have attached these to my coloured ones to add some shadow.

The Circle Template was popped back onto my page to add some white splatters so that they only landed in the circle.

I then used my white pen to add a few highlights to my page.

My Art Journal, for Scrap FX

Hi, hope you're all well.

Today I share a couple of journal pages, both featuring Funky Folk and Graffiti Peeps.

I've realised that I feel the need to put wings on these little guys and for this page I have used the Botanical Stencil and some gloss medium for these.

Once dry, I have added some water and Colour Blast shimmer dust for a nice bright colour wash.

I have also outlined the Funk Folk in black and added a quote with matte medium from the Philosophy Phrases transparency.

My next page is in my black journal and has a couple of Graffiti Peeps and a Funky Folk.

The Graffiti Peeps have been messy outlined with Posca Pens.  The dots around the page have been done with some Poscas and the Random Dot Stencil.

The title is from the Philosophy Phrases Transparency and has been painted on the back before adhering to my page.

Hope you've been inspired ♥

    

      

Dear Self, Stay Strong, for Bee Arty

Hi 👋 Sharing today an art journal page.

This background has been created by spreading some Heavy White Gesso onto the page with a palette knife.  While this as still wet I have sprinkled on a little Colour Shimmer Dust in Peacock and Cobalt.

Some Colour Paste in Sunshine has been added through the Circulate Stencil.

A little of the paste was scraped off from one of the circles and I have stamped with the Making Marks Stamp set to make a couple of wings.

These have been coloured with some Tombows and I have adhered a Graffiti Peep from Scrap FX.

My page has been finished off with a crown and a heart, and a few marks and scribbles.

Hope you've been inspired 💙

Funky Folk for Scrap FX

Hi everyone, hope you are all safe and well and looking after each other.  Today I’m sharing a journal page in my black book with some new products.

I started this one with a white pencil and the Circle Stencil.  This stencil is probably my most used Scrap FX product.  I’ll use any excuse to add circles to my page and this is perfect for them.

I have just finger painted inside the circles, not worrying about how neat or messy it looked.
There was a lot of excess paint in the blue circle so have used the Scribble Word Stamp by pressing it into the excess and stamping it around the page.

Next I adhered a few Funky Folk (omg I am so in love with these) to the page.  I had them hanging off the edge and trimmed them off once dry.  The Keep Calm and Be Awesome Silhouette has been trimmed and glued down with matte medium.

I finished the page off by outlining the elements in black and white pencils.

Hope you've been inspired ♥
