Circles And Butterflies

Hello Friends!

Mondays are always such a great moment of the week with my Creative Team sharing their artworks and inspiring us all.

But before we show a new stunning creation, I'd like to tell you about a pretty great giveaway on prima_mixedmedia instagram (which by the way, is filled to the brim with mixed media amazingness!).

So take a look at what you can win and don't hesitate - head right on to this post, follow the instructions and I hope you will be the lucky one to play with these goodies soon! ;) No time to wait, the giveaway's open till Wednesday September 28th. Good luck you all!

And now let me present Athanasia and her beautiful art journal page with two of her favorites: Circles and Butteflies - I know you'll love it!

Hello dear friends!

Today I'm sharing a new page I created for my Denim Journal. I really love that I can add more and more pages in there and they can be worked out of the journal - it makes my job easier!

For my page I used watercolor paper which I cut to Denim's size. I incorporated the two things I enjoy most having on my journal pages: butterflies and circles.

The circles are the leftovers from a chipboard board I had in my stash and I used my favorite shades of Art Alchemy Acrylic Paints to color them.

In order to create a mixed media background I used Heavy White Gesso with stamps to create texture (you will see this technique in my video below) and Modeling Paste with the Honeycomb Stencil. I also used some clear stamps with black Archival Ink.

The butterfly is handmade and I love this tiny Star Brad I used to decorate it, it's so cute!

For my quote I used a die cut element from the 7Dots Studio Verano Azul collection, as well a sticker with a big star to embellish my page with some black thread.

Last thing to do was to glue three Melange Art Pebbles to add more interest to my page. Luckily I found in the jar the perfect size of pebble to fit the chipboard circles. I love how they look in there!

In the video I made especially for you, you can watch how I put together this journal page.

I hope you got some inspiration from today's project and create your own page in your own Denim Journal!
Thank you for visiting
Have a lovely crafty day!
