Paperdoll Art Journal Page | Cinderella Magical Wishes

Happy Thursday! Hope you are all having a great week.  We have had such hot tempertures here all week. Not actually a lot of fun. It is really too hot to be doing anything outside.  I venture out to water my garden and try to keep it from frying, but other than that, I have just been going out to do groceries and run errands.

I filmed this video way back in Februray but it has taken this long before I had a chance to edit it and get it up. I love creating these art journal pages with the Julie Nutting stamps. It is one of my very favorite crafting activiites. I wanted to create one that looked like my very favorite of the Disney Princesses: Cinderella. The video will show you how I did it.

I tend to work with paper scraps and bits and bobs from my crafting stash. I like using them on the art journal pages. Generally I keep things I love, but often they are not enough to create a whole card or scrapbook layout. These 6x8 pages with the paperdolls is the perfect way to use them up.

T’is Near Halloween | Whimsy Art Journal Page +Video

Happy Friday! I have a new video to share with you today that features one of the new Whimsy Digital images released today! I totally adore this cute little witch with her lovely, long, flowing curly hair. I knew that she would look great featured on an Art Journal page. It didn’t take long for me to find the perfect backgound for her – it is one of Whimsy’s digital papers. This made it super easy to merge it together with the image as well as a Whimsy Digital sentiment that was PERFECTION for the page. I really love when crafty things come together so nicely as easily.

The video is basically a coloration video with a little bit of this & that thrown in – Enjoy!

Mermaid Paper Doll Art Journal -Julie Nutting

Happy Tuesday! Hope you are having a great day! I have a new Art Journal page to share with you today and it features one of Julie Nutting’s Paper doll stamps: Seaside Sally. She is a gorgeous mermaind and I was so happy to finally have the time to create with her!

Usually when I create these pages for my Art Journal, I use papers from my stash. Generally they are so old that they are no longer available to purchase but similar ones can always be found!

I love to mix and match my stamp sets to get more bang for my buck. I keep this in mind when I am purchasing new sets and it is the reason why I bought MFT’s Memazing and Exquisite Ocean sets. I knew I would able to create some stunning ocean scenes with them.

This is also one of my first forays with Distress Oxide inks. I think I love them! They are so different from the Distress inks but I love how they all work together.

I think this photo really shows how everything layered together so prettily. I was sad to see that I couldn’t find any MIster Huey product to link for you. I guess they don’t manufacture it alny more. It really is just a white liquid that you mist over your page.

Mermaid Art Journal Page + Coloration Video

Happy Hump Day everyone! The weeks are just flying by and we are enjoying every moment of Summer break. I definitely don’t get as much crafting done during the Summer because I love spending time outdoors in our backyard. I enjoy tending to my gardens (I have a vegetable garden as well as herb and flower beds) as well as just relaxing in the shade with a good book or a lovely crochet project. The kids are a bit older now so they aren’t home ALL the time, but when they are I love to just relax and enjoy them.

A little while ago, I posted an Art Journal page that featured a lovely digital image from Elisabeth Bell. You can see that post –>HERE. I had a lot of comments about the hair on that project so I made another journal page and filmed the coloration process for you all. The hair technique as well as the colors used are the same as in the first journal page. Enjoy!

A Paper Doll in Paris | Art Journal Page

Happy Wednesday Everyone! I have a video which a filmed a few weeks ago and have just now had time to edit and post :) Time is crazy scarce these days but I really was excited to share this with you after all the positive feedback when I posted my video sharing my Art Journal Album. You can see that HERE.

I thought my title was quite clever and really love how this page turned out. I have been to Paris with my hubbie quite a few times and it is one of our favorite cities. It seemed the right place for this lovely paper doll to be :)
