FORGLEM MEG EI - step by step

Yesterday I told you I had a bad day. Today I'm feeling a little better. A good night sleep is not to overrated, it can heal almost anything. Also the immense grief you get by getting a serious diagnosis of the doctor..... So when I've told it to My family and also tried to get it from a distance I will tell you about it too.
BUT NOW - lets talk about something much more pleasant; this art journal page of mine, and what I've been using and how I built up this page, okidoki? :-)

This time I'd used my big Dylusions Art Journal 

then I use some baby wipe and covered the whole page with white gesso

I took a rubber stamps from the beautiful collection En liten hilsen from Rubber Art Dance and stamped Tenker  på deg (thinking of you) sentiment over a old book page

and LOVE from the Arty Hearty collection of Rubber Art Stamps

then I took the heart rubber stamps from Arty Heart Collection of Rubber Art Stamps and stamp some heart over an old book page

with my scissor I cut out the  different peaces in squares and use Matt Gel Medium to glue them down  to my page

I mixed white gesso with some water and brushed the page with gessowash

I used a old stencil, unsure which brand and smeared some Modeling Paste with my sparkel here and there on my page

Then I took my  gelatos and colored the page using my fingers

I took the Rubber Art Dance Stamp from the Artsy Heartsy collection and stamped some more heart on my page

with a ornament Stamp bougth at Panduro Hobby (unknown  name of the stamp) and Archival Brilliance Galaxy Gold Ink Pad I stamped a little here and a little there

THEN, my friend, I find this absolutly specatular flower stamp from the collection called Antique Botanicals of Rubber Art Stamp and  stamp it with Distress Ink. For the leaf I used Distress Ink colour Forest  Moss and embossed it with  Clear Embossing Powder and meltet it with my heat gun

The same  technique i used for the flowers as well. Distress Ink in the colour Picked Raspberry, Seedless Preserves, Marmaid Lagoon and Tumbled Glas and embossing them with Clear Embossing Powder. The results became just yammy yammy, don't you agree? :-)

For a frame I glue down Lace around the edge.

Below you see some close-ups of some of the details

I hope you like this journal page and that I gave you a inspiration to make something beautiful. Please give me a comment below,it will be greatly appreciated.

Tomorrow me and  my little sweet family is going by boat to Denmark on vacation. I realy looking forward to it, I just hope its not going to be a storm over the sea... I get very easily seasick.


Hope you have a great summertime! Until we meet again - take care.

Do what you Love. Love what you do - This make me SMILE

Hi again :-)

I promise you to show you what I've been doing for the last past days. And voila - here it is

This is my big Art Journal book from Dylusions.

I startet with gesso all over the page,  so I made balls of paint here and there with the colors pink, yellow, green and blue. Let it all dry and then i came in with Rubber Art Stamps from the collection called Arty Hearty and stamp some heart here and there.

I used a stencil for the arrow-like stuff, and stamped some gorgeous pocket watch from the Rubber Art Stamps collection called Collages Elements. I also drew some curves with my Uni Posca Pen.

Here is some close up of the gorgeous pocket watch

Then I came in with a stamp - still from Rubber Dance Art Stamp, from the collection called New Retro Beach.

Then I used paint brush mixed some gesso with water and painted a little here and there with mixed gesso just to make the colour of the paint and the stamps mixed beautiful togheter.

This beautiful flower is from the collection Antique Botanicals. As you can see of the picture below I stamped this flower on top of the gesso.

Then I took a little more paint and painted a little here and there and made some circles with my fingers, and some gold paint and stamp some more of the pocket watch with gold painting.

and did some doodling

Here is some more close up of the finaly results

This Art Journal Page was really fun to make. I hope I have inspired you also to play with stamps and paint.

I think i will join in with this Art Journal page for the challenge at http://ourcreativecorner6.blogspot.co.at/2015/06/what-makes-you-smile.html

because this Art Journal spread make me SMILE :-) And if I win this june-challenge I will smile even more : -))

Doodling, stamping, art, colours, drawing, play with different techniques,colours and materials make me happy and SMILING!

I hope you will give me a comment so that I know you're out there and follow me in my artistic world.

I will soon be back. Until then - take care!

Hugs from Niti :-)
