Art Journal page ... by Lynn Good

Hi can you believe we are in March already - I dont know where this year has gone already.  Today I have created an art journal page.  I have recently got into art journaling - I find it relaxing and a great way to test out products together and also to scrap and get messy without using any family photos.

I started by covering my art journal double page with scraps of  book pages, music pages, map paper and wrapping paper.  I have used a matte gel medium to adhere them to the paper.

I have then started on the layers with Lindy Stamp gang Inks.  I dry between each layer and then add more until I get the colour density that I am happy with.

I have pulled apart the Memory Maze Chipboard little butterflies - they come apart if you spray the chipboard with a little water and gently pull.  I have pulled a littler rougher as I didnt want exact butterflies - more of a grunge butterfly!  I have applied white gesso and then the same Lindy Stamp Gang colours that I used on the pages.

The Memory Maze chipboard swirls are from the wrought iron collection and these were embossed using Stampendous embossing enamel - Shabby Blue.  

For the light bulb, I have used a combination of Stampendous Aged Black enamel and Lindy Stamp Gang Hibiscous Rose Orange.

The picture I have used is from a Pion Design paper collection - From Grandmas Attic.  I have used all these to create the layout.  

Here are some close ups:
