Art Journal pages

This past Saturday at the fundraiser Bust a Move crop because all of us 11 were able to be there to swap - we finally did the reveal of our Art journal pages swap! Wow - almost a year ago we started this circle swap and due to life circumstances for a great portion of us we underwent a bit a delay for the exchange portion.

Here are my pages that I created for each girl... in no particular order... Great size to create... a bit bigger for the first go.

♥Rachel♥

Rachel Loves colors... Inspired but the butterfly clear die-cut I created the pages with vibrant colors! the "fun" word is also wood like Loulou's page (see bellow on how I altered it)

♥Jenn♥

When I saw the vintage image of the little girl... I thought it was perfect to use for her at it's a spitting image of her daughter Emma.

♥Luce♥

She was passing the books to me in the Rotation and when she saw my own introduction pages... she really loved the vintage tea cups and had made comments on them. I knew it was a great start to what I did for her. It's actually a layer of a napkin!

♥Loulou♥

The Girlfriend piece is actual wood. Love these die-cuts.... I usually inked it pink, then Crystal lacquered it and swiped some crackle paint to it.

♥Katie♥

Loved the printed image of the 2 little girls telling secrets... made me think of our great life discussions...

♥Linda♥

The die-cut sewing machine was just perfect for sweet Linda! I also used some of the Prima packaging from Flowers it was the perfect touche for the page.

♥Mellisa♥

This page was created the following weekend of this Inspired Wednesday page from Donna Downey. Loved to used the dimension flower ribbon and I knew that Mellisa would be all over that as well!!!!

♥Heather♥

Using some of Heather's favorite product's the Adirondack spray's & a few different Crafter's workshop stencils...

♥Sharon♥

ahhhhh.... this one is very eclectic... maybe not at a first glance... but anyways.... I was at the Scrapbox for one of the crops and Jenn had a Multi Media Challenge and from a list of 22 items we needed to use half with one being mandatory: the paper clip. I was cleaver for one of them... using as stated on the list: anything from the Tim Holtz Idea.ology.... well... mmmmm lets say that Jenn was quite surprised when I actually used the packaging of the Philosophy tags...! I think I was really cleaver with that item from the list and it was perfect for Sharon!

♥Natasha♥

I was told that she loved green. The heart is Donna Downey foam stamp with distress inks and added on top a layer of the Dimensional paint from Pebeo and heated up with a heat gun. Love the effect discovered years ago from Mellisa.

Et voilà! Months of work... made with all my love to my close Chicka's! Thank you ladies for all the beautiful pages that you made for me.

Art journal Class series at the Scrapbox

Even if this class series is now sold out at the Scrapbox, I wanted to share some of the pages I have created for the class and we have much more to come!

During this series we will be exploring various mediums such as Acrylic Paints & Distress Inks, Crackle Paints, Distress Stains, Glam, Glaze, Embossing Powders, Glimmer Mists, Smooch Paints & Sprays and creating each pages with multiple Application Techniques, Stenciling, Masking, Dry Brushing and so much more. To keep our Art Journal as flat as possible and to be able to work on each page, decorating the cover will be done at the last class.

This series comes in 3 parts, with an optional 4rth workshop at the end (more on that later). The dates are as follows:

Wed April 27th at 6pm - 9pm

Wed May 18th at 6pm - 9pm

Wed June 15th at 6pm - 9pm

Cost $30/$27 per class OR $75 if you pay for all three up front.

If there is enough demand for a second class, we see what we can arrange - so please ensure your name is down on the list if you want to explore the Art journal frenzy! 613.745.2215

Pink Art Journal - part 2

Here are the latest pages from my personal Art journal, the ones I completed over the weekend at the crops at the Scrapbox! Filled up with precious items that i was saving for the "special thing"! I added a touch of red here and there.... pink is made from red so it's works! I am trying not to set rules when creating the pages except the pink colors used!

This following one was my favorite that I created over the weekend!

Trash for some is little treasures for others....

I counted that I have 11 double pages or 22 mini single pages create to have my Art journal complete! Right now I have 7 single ones started on the 22, just back papers & paints.

I have a basket near my work station with of embellishments, scraps of papers, little things I have collected to use. It's such a fun process!

Enjoy your hump day!

Hopefully I only have my class this Saturday so my evening or more or less empty!

Sketchbook / Group Art Journal swap

My little sketchbook volume II left today to debut it's journey to be altered by some of my creative friends Katie, Rachel, Mellisa, Jenn, Sharon and Rosa! Can't wait to see what the ladies will create! Here's a glimpse at my intro pages. Enjoy the Journey through ART Stéphanie xo~ PS I must say this is really a cool size to work with, 3" X 5" it's not big.... but you can still do so much with it!
