Fearless Journal Page

Hello everyone! 

Jenn here today to share with you this fun art journal page using many Blank Page Muse stamps!

This started out as a page that had blue ink spilled on it!

 It is amazing what you can create from an accident with some amazing stamps!

Blank Page Muse Stamps used:

Dragonfly

Live Carefree and Fearless

Background Grunge Art

Correspondence

Brick Wall Section

Baked Texture embossing powder in Rocky Road

Other Supplies:

Spray inks

Patterned stencil

Black Archival Ink pad

Clear embossing powder

Purple Archival Ink

Fuchsia translucent paint

White Gelli Pen

Fuchsia watercolor pencil

Embossing pen

• Start with a blank journal page or like this one, an oops.. If you do not have an oops page like this just splatter some spray ink, spritz with water and move the page around to get the same result as a spill.
• Use black archival ink to stamp patterns around. 
• Add the script stamp randomly across the page.
• Then stamp the dragonfly and coat with clear embossing powder and set with a heat tool. 
• Use a watercolor pencil on the wings. This will make the dragonfly image pop!

All of the detail that is achieved from using multiple stamps is great!

• Use a palette knife dipped into fuchsia acrylic paint to lightly drag on the page on each side. 
• Use a patterned stencil and dab black ink through it on top of the fuchsia color. 
• Finally add a few more of the round grunge stamps in purple inks here and there. 
• As a finishing touch go around the stenciled circles with a white gel pen.
• For the drips on top of the page use an embossing ink pen to draw them then coat with baked texture embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Thanks so much for visiting the blog and viewing my post today!

Fairy Floral Canvas by Jenn

Hello everyone! Jenn here today sharing my Fairy Floral canvas I created 

with some amazing Blank Page Muse Stamps!!

The challenge theme for May at BPM is embossing and I wanted to continue that theme with my second project this month! This little 5X7 canvas was fun! I used many different products and techniques combined to add texture and interest and still spotlight the adorable fairy stamped image!

The Blank Page Muse Stamps used here are:

Fairy with butterfly wings

Background grunge art by Pam Bray

Correspondence by Katy Leitch

All of these are available in the online store by clicking the links.

Please see my full supply list at the bottom of this post.

To create this canvas I first coated it with clear gesso and then added texture paste white crackle in areas. I allowed the crackle paste to dry naturally so it would result in more cracking.

I added a cardboard frame and then added some metal embellishments, glass stones, a molded clay clock, and flowers.

I also added some small beads that were died using Colorique ink.

I alternated between colors in purples and pinks mixed with water on a paintbrush drying in between with a heat tool. I added some gel medium to the frame and on a few of the frame edges and sprinkled it with Lindy's embossing powders. The powder was heat seat with a heat tool.

To complete the project I brushed some white gesso over the flowers, added some ultra fine glitter and mini art stones for texture. I stamped the backgrounds and script stamps using black archival ink. The fairy was stamped onto heavy cardstock in black archival ink and then clear embossed and cut out.

This added the final touch and the main focal point. Some splatters of frosty blue DecoArt acrylic and white gesso complete it!

Here is a closer angled view to show the dimension.

I really enjoy using embossing in many ways on my projects! There are so many techniques!

Thanks so much for viewing my post! I hope you are inspired and heading over to the Blank Page Muse Blog to see the May challenge and enter your creative goodness!! Just click on the picture link to see all the details!

Seas the Day Sunny Canvas

Hi There! 

     Jenn here today sharing my relaxing beachy themed canvas! 

I just love the difference you can make with stamped images. This canvas without that beautiful Blank Page Muse Sun Stamp just wouldn't have the same personality!! 

For me, the beach is an inspiration. I love the colors, the sounds, the sand.

 Creating beautiful projects inspired by it are some of my favorites!

Adhesive runner

Glue

Dew Drops

Foam adhesives

Clear embossing powder

Black embossing powder

Embossing ink

Black Archival ink

Distress Ink

Stencil

Black Card bases 5 X 6.5

• Start by stamping the heart and dragonfly onto cardstock using black archival ink pad.
• Coat ink with clear embossing powder, shake off excess and heat set with heat gun.
• Color the embossed images using inks or watercolors, let dry and cut them out. Set aside and move onto the backgrounds.
• On the plain cardstock,  apply the ink sprays in desired colors with a stencil. Be sure to dry in between colors.

• Cut two 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" pieces from this. Apply adhesive to the back and place on your card fronts.

• Add the stamped cut-outs using foam adhesive squares as shown.

• Use a sentiment stencil to trace out the words using embossing ink pen. Coat with black embossing powder, shake off excess, and set with heat tool. To add that splattered grungy look, add splatters of embossing ink before adding black embossing powder. Cut out and adhere to card fronts using adhesive foams.

• For the inside of the cards, cut two 5.5" X 4.25" pieces of plain cardstock in light color such as ivory. Use the same heart and dragonfly stamps and black archival ink pad to stamp onto plain cardstock. Only stamp half of the stamp on bottom edge.

• Use adhesive on the back and adhere to the inside.

• Add some dew drops or other bling in your stash randomly to the front and there you go!
