June Challenge by Tanyalee Kahler

Hi everyone, Tanyalee here with my take on the Soul Sisters June Challenge.


I created an art journal page using loads of texture, lime and jade green, and my own handwriting.


I started off with a layer of gesso to seal the page. Then I added some ephemera pieces and collaged then to the spread. The colours matched the mood board really well, as did the impasto paints from Finnabair that I used to blend into the background.


Next, I added texture paste through a few different stencils - some I added paint too, and some I used snowflake paste and patina paste for even more texture.


Once the texture layers were dry and finished I added marks with Neocolour II water-soluble crayons and some of my trademark ink splatter. Before finishing the spread with the quote written in my faux calligraphy handwriting.


I love the bright colourful spread and think this colour scheme is fast becoming a new favourite of mine.

Are you inspired by the mood board? Then make sure you submit something you make to the Soul Sisters Facebook group to go in the running for a prize. More details about the challenge are below:

June Challenge - Embrace the Journey



 Hi Soul Sisters. I have my take on the June challenge here for you. I am not keen on my handwriting at all... So this one was a real step outside my comfort zone.


I had been challenged by a friend to figure out how Alcohol inks work... Well I can tell you they are a slow process.. I really enjoyed the play and I hope you do too. I guess I learned to 'Embrace the Journey' and that is how it became the title of my journal page.  



I stamped and embossed on an second sheet of Yupo to create the Geometric shapes and matted them in black card. 


I hope you like it.. I have a list of products below.
Thanks for looking!
