Art Journal Page - Find Your Fire

Hello sweet peeps and welcome to my blog.  So nice to have you stop by.

I've been rather slack with my blogging lately and thought it was about time to get a bit more active here.  I have still been crafting on a reasonably regular basis and do have a few things to share so I'm starting with this Art Journal page.  Made this quite a  long time ago so, hopefully, I will remember what products I used.


The base of this page is dp by Tim Holtz and I know I added the colour with Lindy's Stamp Gang Magicals.  These gorgeous little pots of powdered colour are a fave of mine.  So easy to use and absolutely gorgeous!







Lots of stamping with the Harlequin stamp by Kaisercraft and a crackle stamp by Prima ..






 .. and a piece of jute ribbon for some tactile texture along with a mixture of prills and microbeads.

Added a scattering of ephemera for extra interest ..






.. and topped it with a fabulous cogs and gears chippie which has been heat embossed with black, bronze and teal embossing powder.
The title was computer generated and mounted on a piece of heavy card.
To finish off, I did a bit of doodling around the edges and used a watercolour pencil to add some extra lines of interest around the page.

I so enjoy getting messy creating these kinds of pages and I have a few more of them to share at a later date.

Thank you so much for your visit and do enjoy the rest of your day.
Take care and God Bless.

  5. A stunning Art Journal page Margy; beautifully composed with such an eclectic mix of materials. They all play nicely with each other and contribute to the beauty of the piece. Love the pops of teal and orange and hints of stamping around the edges. Inspirational work. x
