Just be U

Hello fellow Crafters,

Today is the 1st of February and that means it is my turn to post some more art. I made this art journal using Roc's 'Just Be U' stamp. You can get this and all other Roc Stamps from Stampotique Originals HERE.

Also don't forget to check out Roc's blog and FB page !!!



I started by painting my journal page with water colours in yellow, orange and red. I then took a stencil and used Distress Inks in similar colours to create the flowers. I used a black and a white pen to doodle around some of the flowers to create a bit more interest. I drew a 'washing line' on which a placed some birds. These birds were isolated from the 'just Be U' stamp and coloured, clear embossed, cut out and glued on the washing line. I then stamped the whole 'Just Be U' stamp, coloured it with alcohol markers, cut it out and glued it on the page. That was it.

Thanks for stopping by !


Hope you like it .....

    Those yummy colours remind me of fresh fruit and summer days, it radiates such warmth and those birds, they are the most fun.
    Always love your art.
