Art journal page with Collage Fodder and Distress Ink stenciling

Hello everyone! It´s Sanna here today with a mixed media art journal page inspiration. For this page I used the Sketchy Leaves stamp set as well as the Organic 3, Cross It and Marks 3 stencils with Distress Oxide Inks to make the background. There are just a few Sketchy Leaves stamp sets left! Once it’s gone, it will not be restocked!

I started by inking the stencils with various blue and green tones of Distress Oxide Inks and then misted them with water mist lightly. After that I just pressed small areas onto the page to create a very light and almost fading image of stencil patterns.

Next I took some premade (see my previous project for details) Sketchy Leaves fodder and arranged them onto the page in clusters.

Then I added a Tim Holtz paper doll and fussy cut wings for it from my Grungy Butterflies fodder bits. For finishing touches I created a sentiment with Mix a Sentiment words and the page was done. I really enjoy using white space on this journal page with the clusters of fodder to draw the eye towards to.

I hope you got inspired by this art journal page. Now grab your stamps and stencils and create something fun in your journal!
Happy crafting,
xxx, Sanna
