Video - tips and tricks for decorating dark pages in journal

Hi, 

this video is dedicated to junk journaling but you can apply all mentioned techniques to any kind of paper crafting. I wanted to decorate my beautiful printables with Rubber dance stamps but I wanted to have visible stamp prints so you will see what I found out.

Tags and minitags with Textured Flowers and Carved Collection #1 by Mariken

Image
Hi everyone,    Mariken here, with a tutorial for you,  making these tags and minitags from the left-overs.  I  used the Textured Flowers , Carved Collection #1 , Carved Collection #2 and the sentiments are from Mix a Sentiment #1 and Mix a Sentiment #2 I  made a some backgrounds with alcohol inks and my gelliplate.

I used the rainbows from  Carved Collection #1 to make some marks on the gelliplate.                       In this way I made a few prints in different colors.

Face-lifting does work on other white ...
