I've also used pearls, buttons and Washi tape, Have you checked new Washi tape at Artistic stamper?

If you like to use your old ephemera and papers ....you would like to create this kind of Vintage theme collage  journal page.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hello Everyone,

Happy New Year to you All!! This is my first post of 2015 at Artistic Stamper.

Today I would like to share project with you which is 'New Beginning' which is also a theme of our challenge this month. New beginning of my 'face journal', yes, I took up a challenge for myself  and which I rarely do, and I am totally fascinated about right now,  is to create one mixed media face journal page  every week this year!! :)

and here is Journal cover I made with Artistic stamper stamps.

Let's see how I made this ....

I've used Faber Castell Design Memory Craft Mini Journal board as a base. I applied Gesso as a primer.. When It dried, I applied distress paints (Broken china, Forest Moss, Vintage photo, Brushed corduroy, Tea dye), spritzed water and let them move and this created my base color.

Next I stamped Artistic stamper's Song Bird stamp on tissue paper with ranger jet black Archival ink and adhered that piece on my base. To create dimensional texture on this panel I used stencils and modelling paste.

Here you will see I adhered some of the elements like pearls, wood veneer birds, diecut dragonflies, vintage butterfly washi tape.

and I wanted to add more color but translucent one, so I used Distress stains (Broken China, Evergreen Bough, Wild Honey, peeled paint and Walnut stain)

Another layer of stamping with Artistic Stamper stamps- Calligraphy mats - 4 and small circles from Boarder stamp set 2 I love the texture it gives!!

For final finishing touches, I applied bit of Viva Decor Inka Gold on raised surfaces.

I also used vintage photo and tea dye distress inks to apply on all edges of this piece.

The journaling  word is 'explore'

Let me know if you liked my tutorial and project, it makes my day!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Don't forget to participate in our monthly challenge to win some fabulous Artistic Stamper stamps.
