The Story Teller - Art Journal

Hi everyone, welcome to my second post and project as a spotlighted guest at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenges this month. This week, the challenge theme is :

Let's Art Journal

I've been obsessed with Steampunk Kids Clipart lately, so I made an art journal in that style. 

I used Tim Holtz idea-ology Backdrops Volume 4 f or collage and applied Distress Collage Medium to glue the paper onto the journal, which had been painted with Gesso. I sprayed Distress Spray Stains and Distress Oxide Spray randomly. Then I added some Tim Holtz idea-ology Clippings Sticker Book th94030 to the page and painted the edges of each small piece of paper using Distress Crayon. I stamped randomly using AALL & Create - A4 - Clear Stamps - 142 - Edison Game. Finally, I added the Steampunk Kids Clipart images. Spritz with white and black acrylic paint, and it's done. I hope you like it.

Don't forget, if you would like to see more inspiration from the talented teamies over on the challenge blog and every week, one lucky random participant has the chance to win a $25 gift voucher from Simon Says Stamp and you can join in up to 5 times, which means you could have 5 chances to win. Good Luck to everyone! You have until Monday at 8am Ohio time. 1pm UK time, 2 pm CET to join in.

Thanks so much for stopping by & have a nice day!

Until Next Time,

Hugs & Love,

Ann

Hi everyone, I was invited by lovely Lols to guest this August and share four projects throughout the month linked to their Monday Challenges. It's so honored to be a Spotlight Guest Designer at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. This week, we'll invite you all to the 15th Birthday Celebration!!

Happy Birthday

Wow! This challenge has been for 15 years! I can’t believe that I have participated in this challenge for 13 years. Learning from the talented designers here is my greatest reward and joy. 

Since it is the first Monday of a new month, the team is featuring products by a specific designer/company, and this week it is AALL & Create. You don't have to use their products to join, but it is always fun if you do. I've created a card this week. Hope you like it.

For the images, I used the AALL & Create COFFEE TIME A7 Clear Stamp Set and Border Stamp Set - Purrfect Gift. I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush Marker for coloring and cut out the images.

For the background,  I apply Distress Texture Paste through the AALL & Create Stencils Circuit and Rota Vitae randomly. When it was dried, I sprayed Distress Spray Stain Weathered Wood, Speckled Egg, and Tumbled Glass all over it. When it was dry, I used the AALL & Create Eclectic Silhouette stamp set to stamp "15" on the right-hand side to celebrate the Monday Challenge's 15th anniversary. I hope you like it. 

 

Don't forget, if you would like to see more inspiration from the talented teamies over on the challenge blog and every week, one lucky random participant has the chance to win a "$50" gift voucher from Simon Says Stamp and you can join in up to 5 times, which means you could have 5 chances to win.
