hi everyone its Keren here and welcome back to my channel today I have a new
tutorial where I created a quick and easy our journaling page and where I
show you a step-by-step our journal process using visible image stamps and
I'm working inside my joggle 6x6 this bount
watercolor art journal all the products are listed below in the description area
now I love working in my discount art journal from juggles I love my 6x6 it's
a great space and a great great size and I love it that you can remove the pages
the thing with this double art journal page is that I've already used a journal
several times and now all my pages are done on one side and I want to make sure
that the other side is filled as well however I do not want to ruin the other
side because I live really loved the pages so I can't put too much of a wet
medium in the back so I figured that the best medium to do behind it is to use
distress exciting's so I took my Tim Holtz glass mat which
actually has been sitting in a box for a while and don't know why I never used it
because I truly truly love it and it's just so easy to use and I'm
doing it right on top of it and I'm using the white part to add the ink and
I'm using several colors of distress Hawk sightings which I will list below
and all I'm doing is just adding them to my white matte and then spraying them
with a little bit of water and then dipping my pages now you can see that
both pages have in different type of art journal in the back so what I'm trying
to do is I'm trying to fill a set of our journals
in the middle now if you don't want to do double spreads I know some people use
this disc bound journal and just use one side of the 6x6 page and then you don't
have to worry about filling the back it will just stay white and plain and
that's okay as well I love both ways of doing that but because I wanted to have
a full journal I am doing this and that's the reason why I am using a
medium that is not so liquidy so it will not stay in the back
not soak the paper as much I really love this art journal specifically because
you can remove the pages and you can do so many things with it so I don't have
to be stuck inside in our journal and it doesn't also ruin the middle of the art
journal where the binding is this way I can remove it and then put it on at the
end I also love the way the distress oxide earrings create an amazing simple
background you don't have to do much to it you can just continue adding
different stained elements with different colors and it creates a
fabulous background that you can just add things to it after so by continuing
to add the colors you continue to add really nice things to it as well one of
the things I wanted to do is I wanted to match some of the stains that were
already on the back of this art journal I wanted to match them with the same
colors from the distress Hawk sightings and other things I wanted to do is I
wanted to use some of my distress oxide inks because I just recently purchased
the next 12 colors and I realized that some of the third bundle that I had
bought I have not used it was a good way to taking them out and using them for
this purpose so I continued adding layers of the colors until I was happy
with the result then I just heat said and that was it and I wanted to talk
about the point of this type of art journaling this is a very simple easy to
make art journal and the reason why I'm doing it is because I wanted to our
journal and create art but I'm really constricted in terms of time I don't
have time right now there's a lot of things going on and I'm very very busy
and I still wanted to journal I still wanted to have video content for my
youtube channel but I really didn't know what to do and I wanted to show that
it's sometimes just easy to show a simple way of doing are generally not
using a lot of products just very very simple and that still looks beautiful
and it still gets that art craving and that amazing feeling that you get when
you create art but it doesn't have to be something too complicated since I wanted
to keep everything very simple I wanted to have just one stamped focal image and
I took this amazing life is beautiful stamp from visible image which is an
amazing a penny from the UK and I took the
hummingbird from the stamp set and placed it where I wanted it on the left
side of the page then using my stamp platform from Tim Holtz I decided to
stamp the image onto the background I use black archival ink and just stamp
the image I had to stamp it a few times just because the paper is not smooth in
the background so some of the parts were not stamping perfectly but that's why
it's so good to have a stamp positioner like the Tim Holtz stamp platform so I
just continued doing this a couple times until I was able to stamp the whole
image this hummingbird is just beautiful I really love the silhouette effect and
the distress that it has in the wing so it looks like it's flying and I thought
it was amazing to have it for a focal point for the other side I decided to
stamp the sentiment that comes with the stamp set which says life is beautiful
it's really nice to stamp it above and I used the same ink to stamp this and I
only had to use the stamp platform twice in order to get a crisp image to add
some more distress and interest to the background I took the third stamp that
came in the set and using a stamp lock I stamped it around the page using the
black archival ink again this gave a lot of interest to my background and made
the images look cohesive then to match the splatters from the back of the
hummingbird I took some black soot distress oxide ink and diluted it with a
little bit of water and then splattered it in the background all you have to do
is just create a nice watercolor like consistency and then tap a paint brush
to create the splatters then I use what was left over on my mat to distress the
edges it's really easy to just move the edges along the wet areas and all it
does it creates a nice border for the background and I love having borders on
my backgrounds because they're really frame everything
well he said everything really well and then I took my black football pen and
started adding border markings around the edges of the journal I love doing
this as well because it enhances the borders and all I did is just randomly
add lines very roughly so they become distressed and uneven I also felt like
the background in it a little bit more so I took a script stamp and I just
added a little bit of that script image around the edges of my background that
way it kind of framed everything and created a really nice distressed look to
everything which was the theme that I was going for in this art journal I
really wanted to keep this simple and not add too many elements so that's why
I only did stamping and a little bit of distressing finally I took my white
uniball signo pen and started adding a little bit of white markings on the bird
I just basically highlighted the wings and the tail just so they would stand
out a little bit more once I was done all I had to do is just pop the pages
back in and it was perfect and it didn't damage the back of the pages and now I
have double-sided art journal pages that I can enjoy when I'm flipping through
the journal so some of the pages had a lot of wet elements on them and then
there's these quick and easy pages where I use things like ink to create their
backgrounds and that way they didn't stay in the back of the other pages
thank you so much for watching I hope you enjoyed this quick and easy our
