Colourful art journal - part 2

Yet another colourful spread in my art journal - this time with a Dina Wakley stamp. I just love her Scribbly Women and her Scribbly Birds - I could probably use them on almost everything I create right now, but I try to be more varied than that. :)

So, without further ado - here's today's second colour bomb:



My favourite scrapbooking store carries most of the supplies used on this page - hop on over to Pyssloteket if you're curious about what I've used.

Colourful art journal - part 1

Last week I went to a crop, and together with over 60 other people I had a FANTASTIC time! :D I made a couple of colourful pages in my art journal, and I'm going to show them to you today. The first one is this city skyline:




I'm blogging this @ Pyssloteket today, so if you want to know more, feel free to visit the blog.

Sometimes - a page from my art journal

My art journal gives me the opportunity to express feelings, ideas, a state of mind or just inspiration from a word or a colour. Most of the time it's for fun and it's not so serious, but sometimes I get emotional and show that. This page is one of the more serious ones in my art journal, but don't worry, I'm usually a happy bunny, so don't worry about me! :)




I have used Dina Wakley's Scribbly birds (stamps) and her heavy body acrylic paints as well as Prima's watersoluble oil pastels. I can't wait until I get my hands on Dina's new paint colours - anyone knows of a store that carries them here in Sweden? Please let me know! :)

Thank you for visiting my blog!
Take care!

Today I'll show you one of my many pages in my art journals - this is what I do right now; art journaling. Very often I do things a lot in periods, and right now I have a paint and art journal period, as you can see. :) This spread is made for Pyssloteket, and you can find all the information in the blog.

March Challenge @ ARTastic

I just couldn't resist the challenge @ ARTastic's challenge blog, so from this inspirational picture:


I made this spread in my art  journal:



The only must-have was wood veneer, and as you can see on the detail picture, I have included a wood veneer couple on one of the pages. :) It was SO much fun to create this spread - I think I'll have to look for some more challenges... ;)

Thank you for the visit!
Take care!

Birds & Words

Okay, it's me and my (Dina Wakley's) scribbly birds again. I love them and I can't get enough of them. :) This spread is created with a thin layer of gesso, a bird, black pen and Prima Marketing's watercolour pencils + water and a brush. It's fun to work with a lot of white space and it's fun to try out new things (for me) that I have seen on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram etc. This time it was the way I wrote the words - this is copied from many other creative people out there - I wanted to try it out, so I did. :)


You can find more information about supplies on Pyssloteket's blog.

Thank you for the visit! :)
Take care!

Take care!

Gesso, stamping (Altenew - Magnolias for her), colouring (Prima Marketing water soluble oil pastels) - sometimes it doesn't have to be more complicated than that. :D
