Friends Art Journal Page

 

I enjoy using journal pages by Vicky Papaioannou as my inspiration for my own art journal. I love her sentiments  and learn a lot from the techniques she uses. With her work to inspire me, I can go off and make the ideas my own.

For the background of the page, I sprayed two color of Distress Oxide. First I used Cracked Pistachio and used a baby wipe to move the color around. I followed that with Mermaid Lagoon, through a piece of a stencil design in 3 places.

I used my stash of letters for the sentiment and typed some lines on my computer, which I printed and cut sticking them all in place.

I printed 2 boys and 2 girls from the 4 Seasons CC Designs collection of stamps and colored them with Copic Markers. I cut them out and glued them in a crowd scene and added a couple of balloons.

The framed edge is painted with acrylic paint.

I really love how this page came together!
