Grungy Junk Journal

Image
   Hi, I'm Vero (@Vero.kt) and welcome to today's inspiration. How's everybody? . I've been playing with some of the   Rubber Dance  designs to create a page in my Junk Journal.  I have used   Inky Friends , Pencil marks 3 and   Mixed media marks  1.   I  hope you like . On watercolor paper, I play with different spray inks to create a colorful layer and use a blow dryer to speed up the process. I choose a stencil and apply micro distress glaze (this medium is waterproof, so the surfaces you apply it to won't be affected by water. You can use it as a resist when applying watercolors or any water-based paint or ink) .) For that resistance effect, I choose some pigment and mica inks and apply them on my paper. I use a dryer to speed up the process and to add interest and depth to the page, I stamp different stamps with permanent ink . Later I stitch with the sewing machine to integrate the elements in the composition. One of the parts...

Hi, I'm Vero (@ Vero.kt) and I welcome you to today's inspiration. How's everybody ?                            I've been playing with   Mixed media marks 1 ,  Mixed media marks 3   and   Sketchy Leaves   to  create a  colorful Atc´s that I hope you like . Very easy to do, we started. We cut watercolor paper to a size of 2.5 x 3.5 inches, if you prefer to work in cm, 6.4x8.9. In my case, the paper is smooth and hot pressed, and I color the backgrounds with pigments. When the backgrounds dry (we can speed up the process with a heat gun) we will add texture and depth with different inks, in my case I have used distress oxide.To start, I choose a stamp from the  Mixed media marks  , apply the inks, spray water, and stamp, (I'm not looking for definition, I'm looking for a watercolor effect, watery).Help myself with the dryer and go back to stamp with different i...

  Hi, I'm Vero (@Vero.kt) and welcome to today's inspiration. How's everybody ?I've been playing with some of the   Rubber Dance  designs to create a page in my Junk Journal.  I hope you like it.  I have used,  Mix a sentiments 3   , Inky Friends   and   Mixed media marks . I have used different sheets, wrapping paper, notebook paper, silk and hand cut, in the photo you can appreciate them better. Later I prepare these papers to work with wet media, so I apply a layer of clear  gesso, if the one you have is white, it would also be worth it,  I use a dryer to speed up drying, and I apply pigments with a fan brush and make them react with water. On my work table I mix pigments with water and add them to the stamps to be able to stamp and obtain a watercolor effect. Now it's time to stamp with inks in tones similar to the background. And to add depth. imprinted with black permanent ink It is time to sew the edges by machine o...

 Hi,  today I have for you inspiration for maybe a little bit crazy art journal page. How to make it I will say in video, I write say because it was so long process that video making of step by step would be for hours. But   I will give you all necessary info.

Art Journal What a girl wants

  Hi, I'm Vero (@ Vero.kt) and I welcome you to today's inspiration. How's everybody ? I've been playing with   Mixed media marks ,   Round in circles ,  What a girl wants ,   and   , Mix a sentiment 2      to create a page in my Art Journal. I hope you like. On an A4 watercolor card I played with spray inks and some rubber dance stamps to create the background. When the inks are dry, cut the pages to A6 size . Then started stamping different stamps with oxide inks in tones similar to the background to add texture to the page. One of the parts that I enjoy the most is the composition, I have to admit that it is  usually the part that takes me the most. And this time when arranging the elements, I felt that texture was missing, so I added some stars with a stencil and cracked effect paste Now I leave you some photos with details of the project.I hope you like it as much as I do when making them.             ...
