Artist Gang Tuesday...

Hi Arty Souls:) Sylwia here with my fairy art journal page:) I love art journalling in old books and I thought it would be fun to use pastel colours ans some stamps on vintage pages. I used Watercolor Ground by Daniel Smith to prepare the pages. Then I used crayons by Caran Dache and some acrylic by Golden. I also incorporated my own collage pieces and of course Donna's 'Adore' word stamp set! I hope you got inspired!xx Sylwia (TandiArt)

She regained confidence in her creativity and has s...

Artist Gang Tuesday...

Welcome! Its Denisa here today. This time Id like to share with you my great passion and that is art journaling. I usually start with a rough idea in my head and see how the project develops itself. Just following the natural flow. The same happened here. Just experimenting and playing with texture. Hope youll feel inspired and enjoy my creative process.
