Happy Place

Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well.

I took time during rainy weather this week to play in my craft room on several projects.      I worked in my Art Journal to create a "Happy Place" which is in my garden with many birds singing.  You will see in this fantasy garden there are rising bubbles, one of Design by Ryn's new water effects stamps.. love it !



Above is a cropped version of my AJ Page.

I started with a base of Gesso.  I sprayed Dylusions inks, but with Gesso underneath not as much colour gets absorbed so the result is a softer look.   Next I added some Acrylic paint to the top area.   I used stencils with Distress Inks & Acrylic paints.  All the stamping is done with Black Stazon ink and I coloured the flowers & bubbles with Tombow markers.    I added some doodling with a white gel pen. 

Stamps used:    -"Happy Place" is from Chocolate Baroque's fabulous Artistic Affirmations set
                         -Rising Bubbles from Designs by Ryn
                         -Wild Geranium by Unity Stamp Co

Stencils used:     Bird -Rubber Stamp Tapestry
                           TCW - Mini Fleur De Lis & Mini Cell Theory
