Hello everyone, Riet here.
Today I want to tell you how I made this art journal card.
First I took a piece of sturdy cardboard and pasted on a page from an old
music book. I kept the music paper a bit
smaller than the cardboard so that you can see the edges.
After I smeared the paper with
Gesso I colored it with Gelato's.
Then I added the diamond's with a
stencil and Gelato stick. I drew edges around it with a pencil and scratched it
with a knife. I stamped the top edge with Versa magic and the Hearts and Curls Border. With a brush with water I went
over the hearts so that they are a bit lighter in color.
I wrote the text and added the
dashes with a Posca marker.
Well that was the background, and
then for the beautiful dragonfly stamp from the More Bugz sheet. Take a piece of watercolor
paper. Stamp with a waterproof ink.
I colored the dragonfly with Tombo
markers, but you can color it with whatever you want. Then here and there some
white paint splatters and you're done.
