Live Life...

I wanted to play with borders in this layout.  I have used my paint dabbers over my screens to create the borders.  I then used my Sharpie marker to make the border pop.

Blue hair and handbag to match.  It is always great to play with different stamps.

This just says it all.

A little bit of Christmas...

Dylusions have release their Christmas range and oh course I just had to play with it.  I love the border stamps.  They are so versatile.  I have used a different technique for the background.  I prepared a paint wash and covered the page.  You can still see the ink spray colours underneath but it leaves a very muted look to the page.

Isn't he cute??  Not sure if he likes the spiders!!

Love this saying.  I will just have to make sure that my kids dont' see it!

I love this holly border stamp.  It is fantastic.  This also shows you that you don't need to be perfect with your colouring.

Walking on thin ice...

Just another page in my art journal.  I just love how every page is different.  You can add so much emotion to your page.  I love watching how the pages develop.  Someone told me the other day that looking at a pages was like Where's Wally.  You see different things every time you look.

Love this girl.  I have added little white dots using my white Sharpie to add accents to the bow in her hair.

And of course I just had to add a spider!!.

Thanks for stopping by.

Imperfection ...Embrace It

I just love the saying on this page.  It really matches with "Peggy" by Stampotique Originals.

Mr. Stripes is quickly becoming one of my favourite stamps.  I added some white dots with my Poster Paint Sharpie to accent him.

These stamps are a tad strange but I just love them.

Words Can Say it All

I decided to fill some of the Ranger water pens with my Dylusions Inks to help make it easier to colour in the stamped images.

I love this toadstool stamp and it was a great way to test how my new pens with ink work.

I have used the letter template in different directions and ways.  I really love how this background worked out.

I really don't like birds but actually kinda like this stamp.

Sometime you find some words that are really how you are feeling and exactly what needs to be put on paper.

Don't you just how vibrant the colour are??

With this page I wanted to play with a mix of stamps.  I just want to show people that there are so many different ways that you can use your stamps.

I actually stamped a letter upside down in this page,  Can you tell which one?

No idea why an umbrella has wings but it just works.

The 'b' in book is actually an upside down a

I have just used a lid from one of my spray bottles and dipped it into some paint to make the ring marks.

Another Page from my Sample Art Journal

We just got in some new stamps from Stampotique Originals.  I have used a few stamps from there together with some from the Dylusions range.

I love with Art Journalling that it is okay to not stamp an image properly.

Giggles at legs coming from the top of the page.

Mr Stripes the spider - love him.

The girl stamp is "Sheer".  Isn't she just lovely.  I love her hair.
