There is a "Whimsical" theme this month at the BPM Blog - some great creations by the DT - make sure you check them out!
I'm sharing a mixed media art journal spread using stamps designed by Donna Gray, Terri Sproul and Whimsical Collage gals designed by Xquizart available at Etsy!
Stamp your images from the "
Heart of Nature" set with black ink onto white card and colour then fussy cut. Stamp your letters from the "
Alphabet Letter Set" with coloured ink - cut out and edge with gold if you like!
Create your background pages - add a layer of white gesso to each page and allow to dry. Adhere some torn scraps of tissue paper. Use Gelato crayons to colour parts of the pages - spritz with water and use your fingers to "rub in"!
Use a coloured ink pad to stamp on the background with your chosen stamps and then "Splatter" the pages with watered down gold acrylic paint to give it even more "whimsy"! Allow to dry.
Print and fussy cut your collage images -

Adhere them to your stamped flowers and arrange on one journal page.
Arrange your other stamped image and the lettering on the facing journal page and adhere.
I love the colours and how these pages turned out - love to enhance rubber stamps by using collage images!
