Embrace Change - Art Journal page - Ink Art Designs

 

Hi everyone,

My turn today to share another project for Ink Art Designs.

I went straight to my Dina Wakley White Art Journal and Colour Artist Inks from Bee Arty and gathered my Art by Marlene stash!

I wanted to create a multi-colour background in a different way, masking off long rectangles and painting them with different coloured inks. Add some collage paper, stamping and the gorgeous Black Diamond Glimmer Paste from Nuovo.

I love to add gold foil flakes to a lot of my projects, adding a bit of bling and more texture. I also love sewing on my projects and it doesn't have to be neat!! 

I love the end result, a unique and quirky art journal page with loads of colour!

Here are all the awesome Ink Art Design goodies that I used to create the art journal page:

Hi everyone, 

My turn to share inspiration for Ink Art Designs today with a very blingy art journal page!

I love working with shapes in my art journal and my favourite of all shapes is the circle. 

For this page I cut a circle from a piece of Art by Marlene Collage paper and stuck it to my page. I then stenciled in black ink around the edges and painted the rest of the page with black gesso. 

I love using Staz on Ink when stamping on Acetate, be gentle and don't stamp with too much force as this smudges your image. Let the image dry before moving it, sticking it or using it lol

Add some yellow ink and pink paint pen around the circle and once dry, scribble around in wild circles with a black fine tip marker. 

Now my trick to easy foiling without a fancy expensive machine, use a simple glue stick - go around and around the circle with the glue stick, a line layer of glue will do. Then using tweezers lay your foil sheet or foil flakes over the glued area, wait til dry then use a stiff hog bristle brush and dab vigorously with the brush over the foil area distressing the foil giving a patchy affect. ( I like to call this Elisa's distressed foiling on the cheap) works a treat and looks great.

Here is a close up of my project.
