My Time To Craft Challenge

Hello my dear lovely crafty family. Welcome back to my blog. 

A very warm good afternoon to you all. Hope you all are doing good. How is the weather at your place??? Here at my place it's too cold and from 3-4 days its even raining. This cold weather has made me very crazy.

Today I'm sharing another art journal spread with you all which I made as my Design Team project for My Time To Craft Challenge blog and this fortnight our theme is Monochromatic Christmas. 

Here is my journal pages

I have used Dylusion small art journal book to create it. First I coloured the background with Distress oxide ink using blending foam, I didn't try to blend it very neatly because I wanted little texture with that so. Wanted more texture on it so took Craftangles Snowflake stencil and Linday's Stamp Gang Sidewalk Chalk spray  and started to spray on journal pages. Gave few splashes using same spray. Now I apply Prima clear gesso on it. I did a reverse job here because I wanted to Transfer Me sheet so. Next I took Dress My Craft Christmas theme Transfer me sheet and I fussy cut few design from it. Now the fun part begins, now I placed the image on the page so that my image goes down and the backing white paper comes upwards. Now take a sponge and wet it and remove extra water, now start dabbing the wet sponge on the image white backing, once it get wet, you will start seeing the image that means the white backing paper is ready to slide. Now start sliding the white backing paper slowly to reveal the image. Let it dry for 5 minutes. Once it dry seal it with any  sealer or varnish. Here I have used little birdie crafts matte varnish to seal it. Now I took Craftangles script stamp set and  Dark green Memento Dew drops ink and stamped it randomly on the pages. Again I took Craftangles Snowflake stencil and Distress oxide ink and did stencilling on the journal pages. I was happy with the outcome so I stopped there only. 

I hope you like it and please do leave your feedback so that I can improve myself more.

Tribal Tribes

Hello  my lovely crafty friends, Welcome back to my blog.

A very warm good morning to you all, hope everyone is doing fine and staying safe. 

Today I'm sharing an art journal spread and I enjoyed very much while doing it. I created it using Tribal theme. 

Here I have used my brand new Dylusion Small art journal. First I coloured my background using Distress Carved Pumpkin and Mustard seed inks and to apply the colours on my background I used Tim Holtz blending brushes, which gives very smooth finish. Next sparkled few water on it to give little texture, next I stamped at few place using Craftangles script stamp and Walnut Stain Distress oxide ink. When i comes to create background I can't stop so I took a tribal stencil from iCraft and carved pumpkin ink and started to add it on my journal. I wanted something back on my focal image so I took another iCraft mandala stencil and started doing ink blending using walnut stain oxide. Now I started gluing my tribal images on that. Finally I added my quote on it and highlighted over images and on my quote. Gave walnut stain oxide on the border to enhance it.

Here are few close up pictures of it,
