Hi Friends,
I joined the free 30 Day Art Journal Prompt Challenge by Allyson Bright of "Determined To Shine". As a part of the 30 Day Art Journal Challenge, we get one prompt every day and need to build an art journal page around the prompt. Even though this is a daily challenge, owing to my other commitments, I have decided to do 1 Art Journal Page based on the prompt per week or a max of 2/ week,
So the 1st day prompt is "Whats's That Smell?" and we had to build a page around the smell that reminds us of home. For me, books and coffee are smell that reminds me of home. Hence I built my page around the same.
Small information on the page: I built the background using Distress Inks, Itsy Bitsy Splash sprays, Distress Crackle Paint & Stencilling with some Ranger Embossing Powder & Faber Castel Gel Medium. All Images are Clip arts, printed in black and white and coloured using pencil colour and blended with Odourless Blending Solution. All images were adhered to the page with help of gel medium. The quote is also printed on a paper and adhered with gel medium. Once all elements were stuck, to add more texture & brightness to the page, I outlined every element with black Sakura Micron and added some highlights with white gel pen.
I am a huge fan of "Vicky Papaioannou" and loves here work, her colouring, selection of theme, building of layers and how she adds quotes to her art journal pages. Though I have a long way to go before I reach even 10% of her amazingness, I would still like to dedicate my 1st ever art journal page to her.
If you all would like me to document step by step tutorials for the art journal pages in future, please do drop in some comments for same.
Also, please do let me know if you liked this art journal page. Do leave some love if you like it.
Love,
