Art Journal Page- Believe in Yourself by Dutt Preety


Hi friends :)
Good Morning !

Today, I'd like to share an Art Journal Page- Believe in Yourself.
This is my inspiration for Art & Soul Studio's February Challenge
I was inspired by the pinks in the beautiful moodboard. For bling, I've added gold glitter tape, done heat embossing with gold embossing powders & added a few gold drops. 
I've prepared a step-by-step pictorial of the process.  
Let’s get started :) 

Art Journal Page- "Believe in Yourself"










Pictorial:
Step 1: Created the basic composition by adhering washi tapes, fabric tapes & gold glitter tape to the art journal page using matte gel. Applied clear gesso to the page to prepare it for media work

Step 2: Applied Modelling paste through a Tim Holtz stencil & while it was wet, sprinkled on gold embossing powder and heat embossed it using a heat tool 

Step 3: Added color to the page using Gelatos. Scribbled on the textured surface with the gelatos and also watered them down to add splatters to the page. (Applied some of the color using a palette knife to get a grungy look). While the color was wet, sprinkled Gold Tinsel embossing powder to some areas and heat embossed it to get a textured and glittery look

Step 4: Added dark color to the page (especially in the center) using a dark brown Gelato, also distressed the edges of the page using the gelato & distress inks. Created splatter with the watered down gelato

Step 5: Did background stamping using AAll & Create stamps, distress inks & oxide inks

Step 6: To add more texture and interest, applied modelling paste to the page through a stencil and also created white splatter using watered down white gesso 

Step 7: Adhered black thread to the wet modelling paste 

Step 8: For the focal element, cut out a butterfly from a pattern paper by Stamperia & used a Tim Holtz sticker as the quote. To make the butterfly match the background, added some shading to it using a pink gelato and a blending stump. Outlined the sentiment with an outliner and heat embossed it in gold to make it stand out. 


Products Used:

Tim Holtz Idea-ology Small Talk Stickers
