Hello everyone,
For today's AALL & Create project I have made a double artjournal spread. I was supposed to be a single page but this sort of happened and I just went along with it. I really enjoyed this one; Miss Dee cracks me up!
Here's how I made it:
I used my Dylusions journal for this. It is the 8" x 8" one. I put this stencil on the right hand page; I added some temporary glue underneath because it was not entirely lying flat.
I sprinkled pigment powders over it, yellow and red for the flowers, teal and green for the leaves. I then spritzed it with water.
I then took the stencil off and dried it with my heat tool.
Next I put the stencil back on and went through the holes with a black pen. Not sure if this made it better...
There was so much ink still on the stencil.... I usually put it on a paper towel but I forgot to put one out so I put it on the left page. I really liked that ! I decided to make it into a double spread.
Of course it was much to bright for me so I used a brayer and some paint to tone it down. I didn't use white paint this time but something close to the colour of the paper in the book.
I think putting the paint over the top made the pages more to a coherent whole spread. When the paint was dry I randomly stamped the pages. Not too much as I liked it the way it was.
Added some washi tape.
Next I coloured Miss Dee with my Copics and cut her out.
After putting down some more of the same washi tape I glued Miss Dee and the sentiment into place. I really like the end result.
Here is the right hand page...

I had to pop over from FB to see how you created that fabulous background for the spread. So cool. Thanks for sharing step-out photos and instructions.
ReplyDeleteThis is just delightful, and the sentiment cracks me up! I'm always amused by your playful nature, my friend.
