Believe in ART Journal Page

 

I was so happy to see Dyan Reaveley at CHA again last summer...seems like eons ago, yes?

 

But she asked the ever-talented Gentleman Jim and I if we'd like to work with one of her Journals.

 

Are you kidding me, of course we'd love to...so I was thrilled when one showed up last week from Ranger.

 

This is my 1st page to break-in the lovely book.

 

 

 

 

I can see now I need more time to spend doing this, because once you start...it gets in your blood!

 

 

 

 

This is the page layout after I sprayed the Journal.

 

 

 

Add your Stencils with Distress Inks and your Stamps with Archival Inks.

 

 

Layer on more pen marks...highlights, rolled stamping and outlines....

 

 

 

And  just keep extending some of the stamped areas with more penwork.

 

So get your Journals out, your stencils, your stamps and pens and get going....it's fun!

 

Having some Friends over for Bill's early birthday party...we're both going up to  Elmhurst  this weekend where I'll teach my friends at Creative Cuts and Crafts.

 

They always outdo themselves for us there. The class is a big one. But it's DEFINITELY a really fun one!

 

Can not wait!
