Yupo with Spray Can Paints. Step By Step Art Journal Tutorial.

You have to try this incredible new technique! Painting on Yupo paper with Spray paint!
I am addicted to this (full confession, I can't stop making art!)

 See how the paint creates movement on the Yupo paper. The technique is similar to marbling, but the slipperiness of the paper and oil-based spray  paint creates beautiful patterns and swirls.

I added some coaster board die-cut shapes using my Stampin' Up! Framelits, over black card stock to create a dropped shadow effect.

Here it sits on my desk in my 6' x 6' Hand Book Spiral bound art journal.

Thanks for stopping by! Let me know if you would like to see more technique videos like these. Vicki x

Vintage Mixed Media Board Step By Step.

See how I created this mixed media collage on an artist panel, using Cadence rice paper and stencils, plus Tim Holtz paper dolls. I used Stampin' Up! markers and inks to finish the piece.
Happy weekend! Vicki x

Step By Step Art Journal Tutorial. Fringed Matting.Giveaway!

This art journal page uses the Simple Stories I AM suite. 

I love the inspiring quotes in the suite, so I used one of my digital stamps from my Etsy Store to add the main quote.

I added my fave Kindyglitz colour KRYSTALINA just on the pink flowers to create my “glitter trail”. 

Here is the step by step video , and instructions on how to enter the giveaway this month. Good luck, and have a colour-filled weekend! Vicki xx

Art Journal: Lavinia Backgrounds with Magicals Powders. Mixed Media.

My latest #youtubetutorial #artjournal upload. For this project I used my "Hand Book" watercolour art journal 6" x 6" from Global Arts . The paper in this journal is thick and gorgeous to work with.

 

 The Stamps I used were FINE FLOWERS and FINE LEAVES from #DarkroomDoor,  and the Background is from #LaviniaStamps. The butterfly and Journalling quote are from a sticker book I purchased from Spotlight (available also from American Crafts) from #OneCanoeTwo.  

  

The stamps were stamped in tuxedo Memento Black Ink , then sprinkled and spritzed with #LindysGang Magicals Powders from the Drop Dead Divas range.
