Welcome to a new mixed media tutorial. I’m playing in one of my handmade art journals today using mainly acrylic paints. I create kind of a messy background. It’s really intuitive and easy. My main image is one of my new wildflower stamps. I used it together with the Mixed Media Marks stamp set.

Today I am sharing another page in my new handmade journal. I shared the making of the journal last sunday. I created the background with Distress Inks and used some Mushrooms as the focal point. I really like this littel forest scene.

I played in my Dina Wakley Media Journal using the Stabilo Woodys. I did this totally intuitive and had a lot of fun. If you don’t have the Woodys, you can also use any other water-soluble crayon (e.g.: Gelatos, Distress Crayons, Neocolor II …) My main images on the page are the rainbow and theContinue reading “Intuitive Art Journaling with Stabilo Woodys”

I’m sharing a artist trading card tutorial today using a lot of dimension on the background. I used embellishments to create a lot of texture and acrylic paints and inks to add color. My focal images are my brand new Bumbe & Bee stamps.

Today I show you how easy it is to make a mini album cover (or art journal cover) in a Traveler’s Notebook Style using a 12 x 12 designer paper. I will also create an art journal page in this journal using Distress Oxide Sprays for the background.

I’m playing in my messy handmade junk art journal today. I really enjoy painting intuitively. It’s all about the process and about focusing on that. Some people think art must be beautiful in the end! That’s not true! It’s all about the process and about enjoying it. I am working with my brand new stampsContinue reading “Intuitive Art Journaling – Video Tutorial”

I am working again with my brand new stamps today. I use the Celestial stamp set to create a ATCoin Trio. For the background I am using Distress Oxide Inks. To color in the stamped images I am trying out the Arteza TwiMakers.

Today I am very excited to share my brand new stamps with you! I made this art journal page using two of the new sets. Happy Place and Celestial. I created a colorful scene on a collage background. I added color with the Neocolor II Crayons.

I love to use cardboard as a base for Tags or ATCs. Today I am sharing the making of a mixed media tag using stamps from Rubber Dance and dies from Tim Holtz.

Today’s art journal page is created in my square watercolor journal and I used the embossing resist technique to create the tree on the page. The stamps I’ve used are from the Carved Whimsy Wood stamp set.
