Art Journal Page "Hope" with Shawn Petite Stencils

Hello my friends!

I want to share a new art journal page with you. I used the new Shawn Petite Christmas Berries and Evergreens stencil and the Shawn Petite Fave Words 2 stencil.

I started with the leftover pieces from my last project for the Shawn Petite Creative Team, you can find everything about it here from the vintage wallpaper 3 and shabby wood and glued them down with matte medium.

I then added Gesso and different colors. The candle with it´s candle stand I drew by myself, but you can find a lovely stencil on Shawn Petit´s shop here. I painted everything with acrylic paints.

Then I stenciled the greenery with a mix of greens and brown and set some highlights and shadows, using Gesso and paints with a paintbrush. Then I surrounded the leaves with a charcoal pencil. At last I stenciled the word Hope onto a tissue paper and adhered it with matte medium.

That´s it for today.

Now I wish you a Merry Christmas and have a wonderful time!

Welcome Fall - Art Journal Page with Shawn Petite stencils

Hello all,

November already and before I will jump into the christmas projects, I want to share a art journal page I did with Shawn Petite´s new Fall stencils.

 I love these stencils very much!

This is what I did:

I started with old book pages and matte medium. I glued big pieces to my whole page, dried it and gave the page a light wash with white  Gesso.

Then I stenciled the leaves with different colors, yellow, orange, red, violet, green and brown, with Archival Inks through the Fall Leaves with Masks stencil.

After this I used three different pumpkins from the Pumpkins Variety stencil and stenciled them first with white Gesso on the page. After they were dry, I painted them with acrylic paints, shaded the pumpkins and the leaves with black charcoal, 

Last but not least I stenciled the words from the Fall Words 1 stencil to the page and darkened the edges with a black crayon.

 now I hope you like my journal page!

Have a lovely weekend!

Happy Halloween with Shawn Petite Stencils!

Hello and happy Halloween all!

well, you may know, I am not the Halloween lover, but some supplies are great. So I took one of the new Fall stencils from Shawn Petite, called "Fall Leaves with Masks" and made a Halloween art journal page in my new journal for my time as a Shawn Petite Creative Team Member. 

I will show you some steps, how I made this page:

 I grabbed some DecoArt acrylic paints in autumnly colors and created the background.

 I spreat the colors randomly over the page.

 I took my paint markers and added pattern all over the page, just doodling!

 When this was done, I took the Seth Apter designed PaperArtsy stamps and stamped patterns with VersaFine clair Morning Mist. This is what the page looked like when I was ready.

 Time for using the leave masks! I positioned the masks on the page and painted the space around them with brown acrylic paint. It needed 2 coats to cover the background. After that I used a white posca pen to surround the leaves and doodled around the edges.

Now I only had to add some spiderweb decoration behind the paper dolls, glue them down and add a little felt pumpkin. I took a funny quote from Tim Holtz, which says:"When the broom fits, ride it!"

Lol.

Here are some close ups from the leaves:

I hope you like my little Halloween page! 

I wish you a creepy evening!

Thank you for your visit!
