Making an Comedy Art Journal - video tutorial - step four

Hello and welcome.

Today I will show you part four of my mini series of Mini File Folder Art Journal from the beginning to the end. You can find the previous videos by clicking here and here

Today I will decorate a page inside my art journal using a very funny focal point. I hope you like it.




The pictures with the funny text I've used in this journal are from Mixed Up Magazine Merchandise on Etsy, designed by Betsy Skagen, called Snarky Ancestors.
I will soon come back and show you more Art Journal pages with some other fun techniques and ideas and last but not least more Snarky Ancestors.

Decorating the front cover of Mini File Folder Art Journal - video tutorial - Step three

Hello and welcome!
I have made a series on how to make a Mini File Folder Art Journal from the start to finish. This is a tutorial on how I decorated the front cover of the Mini File Folder Art Journal. There will also be videos of how to decorate the pages inside the book. I will show you a lot of fun techniques and a lot of very funny pictures with hilarious texts designed by Betsy Skagen. 
My idea is to make a book filled with humor. It's so small that it can be with me in my purse and I can draw and doodle whenever I want to. And I can just take a look at the pages/pictures the book when I feel a bit down.
My thought is that it will be a never ending book. I can add more pages with ex. washi tape, I can stamp, I can draw and doodle and make marks. I can add bits and pieces, you know - everything is allow in mixed media.


I hope you will enjoy the video.

Tomorrow I come back with a new video on how to decorate a page inside the Mini Art Journal with a image/focal point designed by Betsy Skagen as mentioned above. Here is a sneak peak:

The printables I've used on the front of my Mini File Folder Art Journal is from Mixed Up Magazine Merhandise.

Pouring Art on canvas

Hello and welcome!

Yesterday I participated in something called Pouring course. It was a course that was held by a local art store here in the city where I live. I had a great time doing this. Pouring is also called Floritol Art, and probably other things as well. I think this is my thing. I love this technique, it is so unpredictable.

Here are some pictures from the course, and some of my canvas where I've used this Pouring technique:
This is my make on the course. The Paint is still very wet. It has to dry for a couple of days.

This is the teacher and the owner of the Art Store, Malepaletten, showing this fun technique for us.

These two are canvases I made before the course with the Pouring technique

I will show you the finish result of my canvas I made on the course when it's dry. 

You will definitely see more of this in the future 😊 

Thank you for visiting! I will soon come back with a video tutorial on how to decorate my Mini File Folder Art Journal. You who follow me know what I am talking about. If not click here to find out.
