Hello friends!

I have been working on my YouTube channel and some other exciting things coming up in the future and will be posting more process videos, mostly, art journaling and some scrapbooking/cardmaking.

This is the process video for the project I posted a couple weeks ago on The Crafter's Workshop Blog and also here on my personal Blog, but still wanted to share the video!

Click on the Video above or HERE for the link to my YouTube Channel.

Stay tuned for some exciting future projects!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello! I am excited to share a fun mixed media project I created for a Crafter's Workshop post using several stencils, lots of heavy body acrylic paint and a couple different designs from Altered Pages!

I also made a video of my process you can find below or HERE.

I used the 3 stencils below as well as the white, gold, orange and bright pink in the Heavy Body Acrylic paint and Gel Medium in Clear.

The Crafter’s Workshop provided me with some product to create this project. The opinions I share are solely my own.

I also printed out 2 different digital & printable designs from Altered Pages. The link to each design is at the end of the post! I love the muted, vintage colors and images with birds, hearts and maps. Those images inspired the stencils I selected to use.

I started with a canvas that was already primed with gesso. I added several shades of NeoColor crayons to add a light color and texture to the background.

After the background dried, I cut out and tore lots of the Ephemera images, pieces of corrugated cardboard, kraft paper and other pieces to collage together.
