The Crafter's Workshop Blog“Kindness can change the world” Mixed Media Art Journal

Hello crafty friends,

Marie-Christine with you today with a new page in my Art Journal and this lovely sentence which gives a little hope in these difficult times. Fortunately, we have the wonderful TCW stencils to brighten up our designs! Here I chose TCW862 Maidenhair Fern, TCW801 Skylight, TCW807 Script Dots, TCW5001 Heart Background, TCW342 Urban Landscape.

***THE CRAFTER’S WORKSHOP PROVIDED ME SOME PRODUCTS TO CREATE THIS PROJECT.THE OPINIONS I SHARE ARE SOLELY MY OWN.***

“Kindness can change the world” Mixed Media Art Journal

Here, my background is a printed paper. Scrapbooking paper is my second addiction after TCW stencils! So I have a whole stock at home, I am particularly attracted by the vintage style, you must have already noticed that. So I cut my paper to the dimensions of my Art Journal to work on it.

I start with TCW801 Skylight stencil and TCW9005 White Modeling Paste in the middle of the page.

I let it dry, then I add more color with Distress Oxide by repositioning my stencil on the paste.

I prepare my skyscrapers with TCW342 Urban Landscape and TCW9005 White Modeling Paste on TCW9051 watercolor paper pack.

At the top of the page I use TCW807 Script Dots stencil with some Distress Oxide. Then, I make branches with TCW862 Maidenhair Fern and TCW9026 Champagne Gold Modeling Paste.

I put color on the buildings with Distress Oxide, then I cut them out and place them on my page before sticking them.

I like to use stencils like this one to make my embellishments. A little modeling paste and colors, all you have to do is cut! Have you ever tried?

I add small hearts with TCW5001 Heart Background and TCW9026 Champagne Gold Modeling Paste at the bottom of the page.

I add butterflies found on Pinterest at the top. I stick a Masking Tape tape on the buildings. I glue the girl that comes from vintage scrapbooking paper.

Finally, I decorate my buildings with a white marker.

Here is the result, thanks for stopping by today, I hope my tutorial inspired you! Do not hesitate to leave me a small comment, thank you!
