Hello everyone,
Marie-Christine here today sharing a new vintage Art Journal page. A battle of snowballs on a pretty red background, that recalls the colors of this Christmas period. I used some beautiful stencils, TCW873 Orb Mandala, TCW870 Fir Branch and part of TCW207 Birds of a feather.
***THE CRAFTER’S WORKSHOP PROVIDED ME SOME PRODUCTS TO CREATE THIS PROJECT.THE OPINIONS I SHARE ARE SOLELY MY OWN.***

I start by making my background with a printed paper.

And I add some red spray ink.

Here, I used the same stencil in two different sizes, this method is very interesting to make Art Journal backgrounds.
For the top of my page, I take two stencils, TCW870 Fir Branch and a part of TCW207 Birds of a feather with TCW9005 White Modeling Paste. when it is dry, I color with markers. Then, I make some white splashes with TCW9001 white gesso. I adhere some white pearls and sequins.

I wait for the drying before adhering my vintage images and my title With TCW9011 Matte Gel Medium. Image found on Pinterest and Christmas tree cut out of a scrapbook paper.
