Have a fun and quirky art journal page to share with you today. Using one of my fave VLVS! quote stamps in combination with collage elements from vintage en fountain pen magazines.
The background was an experiment with various textures and Tim Holtz Distress paints. I've also used the a ledger and script stencil from The Crafter's workshop. I kept layering and removing pants with a baby wipe to get a distressed and aged paper look.
Created some shadows with distress crayons and added some text and postage stamping plus white and gold spatters before adhering the collage images on top.
Detail close up. I also love that the vintage magazine image also has some grainy texture to it.
Definitely love how this whole page came together!
I'd like to enter this art journal page in the following challenges:
I love creating art journal pages and experimenting with back ground techniques.
