Herbarium fun …

I had some playtime in my Art Journal, an old diary.
Two pages for you today, with the beautiful herbarium 12×12 stencil. LOVE the size of this one, so useful!art journal TCW geelgroen blad (1) I started by just playing around, without even thinking of what I wanted to achieve. Only the stencil and two colours of some Gelatos type sticks.
By using a baby wipe, you can easily take color away as well, that’s how I achieved the layered look. I’ve also used the same stencil and a Magenta stamp to add some script.

I’ve sponged the same leaf onto a separate piece of cardstock, cut it out, and added the back clean side to the page. It looks like a diecut, but it isn’t. As you can see I’ve used the stencil to make it!  I LOVE to use my stencils this way.

On this page I played with the same stencil (and stamp from Magenta) some more:

  1. Wonderful pages. I’m just getting to understand how to use all the different mediums & which does or doesn’t work with what. This looks likely to be one of my next “let’s try this”. Thank you for sharing the steps.
