Hello everyone!
Back today to share something completely new, at least for me.
I've long been wanting to try the Art Journaling technique, but I want to incorporate it into my cards. Now I've finally bought a few sprays and stencils, so you have to remember that this is my first attempt with Art Journaling.
But what I love the bright colors!!!
The background is made with Dylusions ink sprays. Then I used some stencils, Gesso and Distress Inks. A bit of stamping and drawing with pencils.
The good cleaning fairy from Stampingbella were stamped onto watercolor paper and painted with Distress Markers. Then I cut her out and attached her on the background paper. Then I thought it would be good to use my new Glue n'seal on top and around the edges of the fairy, but it was the biggest mistake, because you can see how it went!
I added Pearl Maker in her hair, Star Dust Stickles on the feather duster and 3D Snow to her petticoat.
Behind it all, I used a piece of embroidery fabric.
I think she has spread a little of her cleaning magic here for it sparkles so:)
That´s all from me today, have a great week!
Hugs, Birgit.
