Funny Art Journal Page for Country View Challenges


The challenge is hosted by my very talented team mate Corrie this month and she wants to see us use "Blues and Greens"!

I made a art journal page, using a girl from the die cut block and the funny sentiment from the Whimsy quote & letter stickers block from the signature collection art by marlene. I wanted to make a little funny page - and the weird girl and this funny sentiment were perfect for that!


I really love, how the page turned out!

And this is what I did:
 first I put a layer of Gesso on top of a piece of watercolor paper. Then I grabbed acrylic paints from Amsterdam Standard Series in Sky Blue Light and Reflex Green. You can find a huge amount of them in the shop. They come in the 120ml version or in the very handy 20ml size.
First I spreat the blue color with my fingers over the surface, took a Tim Holtz stencil THS092 and a dump baby wipe and took off some of the paint again. Then, when dry I did the same with the green paint.
 When everything was dry, I brayered some acrylic paint in Titanium White randomly over the page to tone the colors down a bit. Then, when the paint was still wet, I took off some of it again with the same stencil.

 Next it was time for more green I thought. This time I used  Phthalo Green and dabbed it with a make up sponge through the stencil #11 from AAL & Create.

 Well, now I wanted more blue and I used one of my favourite stencils at the moment, the Jofy Stencil PM014 from PaperArtsy. I took DecoArt Americana acrylic paint in Ultramarine Blue this time and sponged it through the stencil.

 Time for some stamping. I used the stamp STAMPIN250 out of the Industrial 2.0 line from StudioLight with Archival Ink watering can.....

 .....and from PaperArtsy Minis MN72 with Archival Ink Jet Black.

 I adhered the beach beauty and the sentiment sticker, which I first glazed with Phthalo Green, mixed with Matte Medium......

 shaded the leaves the lady and the sentiment with a black stabilo all pencil, activated with water, added some white splatters and framed the page with distress ink blueprint sketch and doodled around it with a black posca pen.

 Well, I hope you like my fun page like I do!
Here are some close ups:
