Vintage Collage Art Journal

Hello Everyone,
Shilpa here,


I would like to share with you this vintage journal page for which I've used lots of Rubber Dance stamps:




To start with, I stamped all images with black archival ink.



To make the paper vintage,
  • I applied Paynes grey, Transparent yellow Iron oxide and Quiacridone Gold acrylic paints- all mixed with lots of water.
  • When it was wet, I sprinkled salt onto it.
  • Let it dry naturally
( Originally this technique is shared by Andy Skinner in his YouTube video here)


 After paper was completely dry, I removed the salt and I got this old paper look.
I used the same technique on all the other images.



I cut out all the images and created a collage on Burlap page of my journal.


For more interest I added fabric flowers, doilies and wooden buttons.


Lastly I adhered the image of the Nostalgic Couple and black lace trim.



I love the way it turned out...

To purchase these wonderful stamps .. please visit Rubber Dance Website

Thanks so much for stopping by

Always Sparkle - Envelope Book Tutorial by Sue

Image
Good afternoon and happy Saturday, welcome to the weekend! It's Sue here with my envelope book. Making your own books and journals is very popular at the moment, and I wanted to have a go. I also wanted to use supplies that I had already as it's just after Christmas and I'm already in 2022's craft budget. So I have quite a few of these -  Colour Craft lustre paints. Loads of these - rather posh DL pearlised envelopes. I bought a box full in a closing down sale, so have a box full less 3! And these, my favourite bright StazOn inks. So to work (well play really, I'm making it all up as I go along) I started by painting my envelopes with the paints, then added some stencilling in a contrasting colour. I've used totally different colours so that I've got a choice of colours for my toppers. I've used metallics on this one and they are really nice! For the 'in between
