Art journal page with stencils and Distress Oxide Inks

Hello, it´s Sanna here today with a layer stenciled art journal page share. For this project I used the following products: Organic 4 and Mini Textures 1 stencils as well as the Sketchy Leaves 5 stencil in the focal point cluster. The stamps used as a further layer and focal point feature following sets: Mix It Up 7, Mix It Up 4, Collage Leaves 3 and Mix It Up 6.

I started with the following steps:

I first inked a lighter toned layer thru the above mentioned stencil onto the page, then slightly moved the stencil to create a 3D-effect and inked over the area with a similar tone, but slightly darker. That creates this really fun effect.

Next I took a black stamp ink and stamped some details with the Mix It Up 4 stamp set.

Followed with further stamping with the Mix It Up 6 and Mix It Up 7 stamp sets.

I also added some asemic writing to the background before creating a cluster of elements as a focal point. The blue collage fodder element is a previous make with Sketchy Leaves 5 and Brushos (see details here). The leafy flower is stamped on a music note paper with black ink (using Collage Leaves 3) and then fussy cut. Finally the sentiment was stamped on an old book page with the Collage Leaves 3 stamp set anf fussy cut to fit the page composition.

I also added some “turquoise” and “medieval” Gloss Spray droplets as detail and also added some stamped eyes in the process. They are from the Mix It Up 7 stamp set.

I love layering stencils and adding fun details to art journal pages with them. Then mixing some stamping with various stamp sets for contrast make creating art journal pages so much fun! I hope I could inspire you all abit with this page.
Have fun creating with Rubber Dance products!
xxx, Sanna
